Lower Penn is a small, largely rural parish in South Staffordshire, Staffordshire, England, sitting on the edge of the West Midlands conurbation close to Wolverhampton. It occupies gently undulating countryside of farmland, hedgerows and pockets of ancient woodland, with a mix of historic cottages and more modern homes that give the area a semi-rural character while still being within easy reach of urban amenities.
Historically agricultural, the parish now combines small-scale farming and local trades with a substantial number of commuters who travel to nearby centres such as Wolverhampton and Birmingham. Community life is quiet but active, centred on local institutions like the village hall and church, occasional village events and a strong sense of local identity that reflects its long-standing roots in rural Staffordshire.
