Map of the UK

Wilnecote is a suburb of Tamworth in Staffordshire, England, originally a small village that expanded during the 19th century as the town grew. It lies just to the south‑east of the town centre and has the feel of a place with deep local roots - older terraced streets sit alongside post‑war estates and newer developments, reflecting waves of change rather than a single identity.

Today it functions largely as a residential area with a modest parade of shops, schools and community groups, plus pockets of green space that give a semi‑rural edge. Many residents value the short commute into Tamworth and the wider transport links, while local clubs, churches and events help maintain a strong neighbourhood character.
