Willenhall
Willenhall is a small town in the West Midlands of England, with a population of approximately 40,000. It is situated between Wolverhampton and Walsall, formerly in the county of Staffordshire. Most of the town is now a part of the Walsall Metropolitan Borough, although a small part is now contained within the City of Wolverhampton
Willenhall is famous for the manufacture of locks, and the UK's National Lock Museum is situated within the town.
The northern border of Willenhall has always been adjoining greenbelt land, although Willenhall has expanded so much in the last 100 years that its northern border has been moved by about two miles. This is mostly due to housing developments in the Short Heath and New Invention areas.
