Pelsall

About

Pelsall ward lies on the northern edge of the Walsall borough, primarily consisting of the large village of Pelsall and its surrounding residential areas. The settlement is bordered by open countryside and the Wyrley and Essington Canal, which historically served the local mining industry. Housing is a mix of older terraced properties, interwar semis, and more modern developments, creating a settled community with local shopping parades serving daily needs.

The area is defined by its historical connection to coal, with the site of the former Pelsall Hall Colliery, scene of a significant 19th-century mining disaster, now forming part of the community's green space. The canal towpath and nearby green corridors like the Plantbrook Walk provide routes for recreation. Norton Bog, a designated Local Nature Reserve with wetland habitats, sits just to the east, offering a distinct natural feature within the ward's boundaries.
