Abandoned railway line
Part of the route of the long-disused Midland Railway; this section ran from Walsall to Wolverhanmpton, via Willenhall (Market Place) and Wednesfield. Much of the route can be traced on the maps and on the ground, but the M6 cuts across it in such a way that there's no chance of it ever being re-opened.
