The Lost Hamlets do not appear on modern maps, so here is a plan showing where they were in relation to Rowley Village which is shown at the bottom right corner. Tipperty Green remains as a street name, and some of the buildings still remain, including the Parish church (though the first church, possibly dating to 1284, was replaced in 1840, a building which in turn had to be demolished because of subsidence. The replacement third church was built in 1904 but was destroyed by fire in 1913. The fourth church is still standing.) Most houses and other buildings in the village have gone forever.
The several quarries shown here eventually merged into one large quarry and the road up to Turner’s Hill, still in situ when I lived in the area in the 1950s and 60s, was closed and quarried away, joining up the quarries. I understand that the quarries are now being filled in with landfill so perhaps soon the green hills of Rowley Regis will reappear after so many years of desolation.
