Page created: 9 November 2005 Town of Walsall Walsall is an industrial town in the English Midlands, to the northwest of Birmingham, with a population of approximately 170,000.

In 1974, it became a metropolitan borough within the newly created metropolitan county of West Midlands (its area being increased at the time by the incorporation of adjoining areas) and, in 1986, it became a unitary authority when West Midlands lost its administrative county status, becoming purely a ceremonial and geographical county.
