Tividale Quays

Tividale Quays

Tividale Quays is a residential area of Tipton in the West Midlands, England.

It was developed in the very early 1990s on derelict and former industrial land in the Tividale area of the town. The area consists of one- and two-bedroom flats, one- and two-bedroom starter homes, three-bedroom semi-detached and detached houses as well as four-bedroom three-storey houses.

Part of the estate surrounds an inlet of the Birmingham Canal that was created to develop a "quayside" atmosphere. The development of Tividale Quays made canal-side living desirable after decades of association with pollution and urban decay, and was one of the first of many housing developments that have helped improve Tipton's reputation.

The centre of Tividale Quays, around the canal basin, is shown below.
