Wednesbury, Industrial town in Sandwell, England

Wednesbury stands at the intersection of major transport routes in the West Midlands, bordered by Birmingham, Dudley, Walsall, and Wolverhampton.

During the 19th century, Wednesbury transformed into an industrial center with coal mining and metalworking industries shaping its economic development.

The Wednesbury Museum and Art Gallery maintains collections of local artifacts and hosts exhibitions that showcase the heritage of this Black Country town.

The town connects to Birmingham and Wolverhampton through the Midland Metro tram system, while multiple bus routes serve the surrounding neighborhoods.

A masterplan supported by £20.4 million in government funding aims to revitalize the town center with expanded retail options and community facilities.
