Hayley Green is a suburb of Halesowen in Worcestershire. Once village in its own right, it has since been swallowed by the town, which itself is a part of the Black Country conurbation. Hayley Green is however at the very edge of the conurbation, surrounded on three sides with farmland, albeit some of it across the A456 dual carriageway.

Hayley Green lies to the southwest of Halesowen town centre. Its focal points are the Fox Hunt public house and a row of small shops beside the A456/B4183 roundabout. It has mainly owner-occupied housing stock, including the Causey Farm estate, St Kenelms Avenue and Squirrels estate, with a small 1940s municipal housing estate off Uffmoor Lane.

The busy A456 Manor Way/Hagley Road is its main road, to the south of which is mostly green belt land. Here it is open farm land rising up to the Clent Hills and the 300-acre Uffmoor Wood, an ancient woodland with public access.

The area is largely within the ancient township of Lutley, which was a distantly detached part of the manor of the Deanery of Wolverhampton.

The area is served by Lutley Primary School.
