Walsall has layers, from St Matthew’s tower overlooking Market Place to the canal’s quiet towpaths, from Barr Beacon’s sunset views to the Concrete Hippopotamus. But the best local happenings often get lost. That new exhibition at the gallery, the independent café on Park Street worth your time, the weekend market gems, they’re hard to find amid endless posts and groups. The City Brief cuts through that. Every week, we hand-pick what matters in Walsall and deliver it straight to your inbox. No searching needed, just the info you want.
