The Pauper Trail

The Pauper Trail; is a walk that has been designed to take in all the important places connected with Pauperism and the Poor Law in West Bromwich. It is just over 6 miles long over mixed terrain and there are alternative routes for wheelchairs and push chair users.

You can download a Word document version of the full trail by clicking this link - Full Paupers Trail Instructions.

Alternatively, you can visit a printable web page - Paupers Trail web page. This will open in a new window that you can close once you have printed.

The trail can start from the car park at Sandwell Park Farm which has a café and there is also the Bizarre Café and car park on Newton Road about half way round.

Bus stops are adjacent to the café in both directions on Newton Road, alternatively there are bus stops by Old Church and crossing of the main duel carriage way should be made at the Pelican Crossing at Old Church.

We are preparing a leaflet for the trail; visit the publications page for more news.
