The local area
Walsall grew rapidly from its humble origins as a small village in the 16th century, mainly thanks to the impact of the Industrial Revolution. The 1970s saw significant modernisation of the town centre, and the 1980s the opening of a modern shopping complex. Areas such as the Waterfront and St Matthew’s Quarter continue to be developed, lending Walsall a fresher, more enterprising feel.
The town benefits from excellent transport links to aid its progress, including prime location to the east of the M6 motorway that heads to Birmingham in the south and Liverpool and Manchester in the north. A local road network can get you to local towns like Wolverhampton, West Bromwich, Cannock and Lichfield fairly quickly. Rail services to Birmingham New Street take a touch over 20 minutes, while it takes around two hours to reach London Euston. Birmingham Airport meanwhile is approximately 20 miles from town.
There are a range of good schools in the area for families with children to consider, including Watling Street, St John’s C of E and Ryders Hayes at primary level. Queen Mary’s Grammar, Barr Beacon and Queen Mary’s High School on Upper Forster Street are among the secondary options, while the University of Wolverhampton also has a presence in town.
