About

Pelsall South is an electoral ward in the Metropolitan Borough of Walsall, to the north-east of Walsall town centre. The area is mainly residential, with rows of housing, local shops and primary schools serving neighbourhoods that developed during the 19th and 20th centuries. Community facilities include a civic centre and churches, while Pelsall Common provides green space and playing fields close to the heart of the ward. Day-to-day life often revolves around the village high street and small parades of shops.

Transport links are a mix of local roads and pedestrian routes that connect to neighbouring parts of Pelsall. The Wyrley and Essington Canal runs through the locality and its towpath is used by walkers and cyclists. The site of the former Pelsall railway station and the old trackbed lie within the ward and have been repurposed as public paths, creating direct, traffic-free routes across the area. Local volunteer groups maintain sections of green corridor and canal-side planting.
