Situated in the heart of England, Wolverhampton is surrounded by beautiful rural landscapes, and bustling market towns and villages.
Alongside neighbouring Dudley, Walsall and Sandwell, the City of Wolverhampton emerges as the most significant urban centre in the Black Country – an area which gets its name from its industrial past. North West of Birmingham, the Black Country borders the countryside counties of Worcestershire, Shropshire and Staffordshire.
Easily accessible by rail, road, canal or air, the Black Country is already full of unexpected delights – from art to history, canals to countryside, shopping to entertainment. And plans for the region’s future are bold and optimistic.
