Walsall – a terrific blend of the old and the new
As the leading limo hire company in the Midlands, Walsall is an obvious location to cover. The town is situated within the West Midlands, to the east of Wolverhampton and slightly to the north west of the city of Birmingham. Walsall is often referred to as a component part of the Black Country and within the borough are the towns of Aldridge, Willenhall and Bloxwich.
The town went through somewhat of a transformation during the 1970s and as part of this, the town centre was completely rebuilt. This meant the end of some historic medieval structures in favour of state of the art housing, offices and apartments.
Yet, the redevelopment process within the town remains vibrant today, particularly considering the St Mathews Quarters. This will include an array of well known shopping facilities and modern housing as well as a brand new Tesco superstore which has already opened. The site of the old Tesco is due to be converted into a contemporary one hundred thousand sq ft retail outlet.
Plans are also afoot to provide a connection between St Mathew’s Quarters and the historic market within the town which boasts over 800 years of history. This amalgamation of the old and the new is a distinct feature of Walsall today and is one which will ensure its continued vibrancy into the twenty-first century.
Walsall contains an eclectic range of pubs, clubs and bars and is also the home to the League One football side who play at the impressive Bescot Stadium.
There is truly something for everyone within Walsall, so take your time to have a look around, and plan your special night in this very special town.
