 The Victorian neighbourhood was nearly all replaced by modern housing in the 1970s, but due to funding problems, only a couple of streets were demolished, and replaced with modern housing and a park.Palfrey Park is significant local landmark and is cited as one of Walsall Council’s flagship greenspaces and the first in the borough to achieve the national Green Flag Award in 2007.The Park is located within walking distance of Palfrey Town Centre and its Broadway West entrance is located off Broadway West (A4148 Walsall ring road).
