High St.

circa 1910

This elegant early 20th-century photograph captures High Street in Walsall around 1910, with its lively shops, tree-lined pavement, and the towering presence of St Matthew’s Church anchoring the view in the distance.

The street is alive with Edwardian charm: shopfronts with striped awnings, horse-drawn carts, and children in flat caps and sailor suits give us a snapshot of daily life before the First World War. The cobblestone road and gas lamps evoke a time of community markets, parades, and quiet Sundays. Despite the passage of time, the soul of Walsall’s historic centre remains etched in scenes like this.
