High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Priory Estate is a housing estate in Dudley, West Midlands, England. Most of the buildings in the area were built during the 1930s. The Priory Estate is so named because it is located near the Priory ruins and Priory Park. It stands on land which once straddled the border of Dudley County Borough and Sedgley Urban District. The borders were moved back several hundred yards in 1926 when Dudley Council purchased the land with a view to building council houses. The boundary changes also meant that Dudley Castle was finally transferred to the borough of Dudley after centuries in Sedgley. The foundation stone of the very first house, on Oak Road, was laid on 16 July 1929. The first house was occupied in 1930 and by the end of the decade more than 2,000 houses had been built on the estate. There were also private houses for owner-occupiers built at the south side of the estate near Priory Park.
