Wombourne Outer, Swindon & Seisdon

Wombourne Outer, Swindon & Seisdon is a ward in South Staffordshire that gathers several small villages and surrounding farmland west of Wolverhampton. The area sits within reach of the West Midlands conurbation while retaining a rural pattern of hedged fields, lanes and clusters of houses. Local transport links give access to nearby towns and the M54 corridor, and many residents commute into the wider urban area. The ward name reflects its parts: the outer edges of Wombourne parish, the village of Swindon (not the Wiltshire town) and the historic village of Seisdon.

The Wom Brook runs through Wombourne and gives the village its name; its course, together with a network of public footpaths, ties the settlements to commons and woodlands nearby. There are parish churches, farmsteads and former small quarries that mark the area’s past land use, and village halls, primary schools and local pubs that form the community core. Seasonal agricultural activity remains visible, and long-distance walkers can join a series of lanes and rights of way that thread the ward.
