The housing on the Hawbush estate is formed of the Swan Lane estate, built between the 1920s and 1950s, and the Nagersfield estate, built on the former Nagersfield Brickworks and Colliery, which was owned originally by John Wheeley, and later George King Harrison Ltd, in the 1930s.[2][3]

Dudley Council have assigned Hawbush as part of the Stourbridge Community Housing team.[4]
