Paddock is an electoral ward in the Metropolitan Borough of Walsall in the West Midlands. It is largely residential, with a mix of Victorian terraces, interwar and post‑war housing, local shops, schools and small parks that give a suburban feel while remaining close to the amenities of Walsall town centre.
The ward’s history reflects the wider Black Country story of industrial growth and later post‑industrial change, so you’ll find both older workers’ housing and areas subject to recent regeneration and community projects. Local life centres on neighbourhood clubs, churches and voluntary groups tackling economic and social challenges, while bus links provide straightforward connections into the town and neighbouring centres.
