Definitely worth a visit if you’re in the area. Really interesting little museum and gorgeous leatherwork throughout. Staff there were lovely and really helpful too - even offering to help my son make his own personalised leather key ring, which he loved. Beautiful, quality leather items in the gift shop too!

Great atmosphere, beer and staff... patrons are pretty great too. Had the cozy feel of an old time pub, but isn't dated.

Really enjoyed my visit to Walsall Arboretum. Very short walk from the train station and a big park to have a nice afternoon walk in. The augmented reality app they have is great fun too, we don’t even have kids and still enjoyed it!

I am amazed with the new glow up of the library it is very spacious and has endless facilities I love going weekly to revise as it’s nice and quite most of the time. Also love the new kids section however I would’ve preferred if they did that on a seperate side or room as it can get super noisy when they have the toddlers / kids events on and there’s people trying to work, would appreciate if they included a water fountain /bottle filler so people can fill up their water bottles other then that I rlly love the Walsall library and highly recommend everyone pops down as theres something for everyone as they have now included a good few areas in the library which they didn’t have before including the teenage section!! ????????????????????????

Found out recently from drinking in the Turtles Head what a micro-pub is supposed to be. If you like good cask beer go somewhere else. If you like great cask beer visit here. Great beer, good company, good surroundings.

Really lovely park that we found during the winter lockdown not too far away from home. Children’s play area and plenty of nice open space/scenery to enjoy. This place will be beautiful in the summer!! One of my new favourite parks! Small (free) car park.
