The ward is bordered by the Birmingham New Road to the south and contains several industrial estates, reflecting its manufacturing heritage.

The ward includes the large Bradley Playing Fields, providing significant green space for recreation and sports. Local landmarks include the red-brick Bilston Town Hall and the modern Bilston Market, which has operated on the same site for centuries.
