About Fencing in Wednesbury
Wednesbury is a Black Country town whose name derives from Woden, the Anglo Saxon god, reflecting a settlement history stretching back well over a thousand years, long before the ironworking and coal mining that later shaped the town through the Industrial Revolution. Wednesbury's market received a royal charter in 1275 and a street market still runs in the town centre today. The town centre retains a practical, working character built around its market place.

Types of Materials found in Wednesbury
Wednesbury sits on the South Staffordshire coalfield, where Coal Measures bedrock, historically rich in coal and ironstone, lies beneath much of the town, extensively worked during its industrial history. Above this bedrock, ground is generally a mix of Triassic sandstone on higher ground and heavier clay in lower lying areas, with the sandstone offering firmer, better draining conditions for fence post footings.
