Since we moved from St. Paul’s Church, to our new, improved, high street store, it’s been a pleasure to welcome many of our loyal customers back. However, we are well aware that not everyone knows how to get to our new location, so we’ve taken the time to help you find us.
Arriving By Bus / Train or on foot from Walsall Town Centre.
A large number of our customers arrive by bus, train or walk from Walsall town centre. We are a short, less than five minute walk from Walsall central bus station.
From Walsall Bus Station, you can walk up Park Street, past Poundland and Wilkinsons, and then follow Stafford Street down to the first junction with Littleton Street, and you will find us there, or down St. Paul’s street, between Tesco and Park Place Shopping Centre (Quasar Cente), which leads directly to Stafford Street.
If you have a bus-pass or day ticket, or if you are traveling to Walsall on one of these services, busses stop in Stafford Street, less than 200m from our door, and depart from Walsall every few minutes. The following services stop near our front door: 19, 29, 301, 302.
Arriving by Car
One benefit of our new location is ample nearby parking for our customers arriving by car.
Loading and unloading: For customers who are loading or unloading at The Hub, we have a small loading bay at the back of our store. We have space for a single van, and up to two cars, which is useful for customers making large purchases, taking or returning bookstalls, or for customers with mobility problems, for whom long walks are not possible.
Due to it’s size, we cannot guarantee that this will be available at all times, and if you are relying on making use of this service, and for access instructions, we strongly encourage you to call us in advance of your arrival, on 01922 279227.
When this is not available, their is also parking in Stafford Street itself, just a few yards from our door. Parking in Stafford Street is pay-and-display, and payable in affordable, 10-minute increments. It is free for Disabled Badge holders.
Free Shoppers Parking: Walsall has recently reduced the amount of free parking for shoppers to almost zero. We do not think this is right, and are continuing to make our feelings known to Walsall council—we encourage you to do the same.
However, Tesco Extra Walsall continue to offer 2 hours free parking for Walsall shoppers. Customers wishing to take advantage of this should be users of the Tesco store, or one of it’s ancillary shops, however, we believe that the parking conditions at the store permit any additional time remaining can be used in other Walsall shops, including The Hub, which is located just a 2 minute walk away.
Pay-and-Display Shoppers Parking: Anyone shopping in Walsall Town Centre for more than two hours can take advantage of ample parking, at council run and private car parks. There are numerous council run car parks nearby our store, including the Green Lane Car Park, which has pedestrian access to Stafford Street, and the Bate Street/Day Street Car Park which is on the opposite corner of the Stafford Street/Littleton Street junction to The Hub.
Charges for Council run car parks are as follows:
£1.40 up to 2 hours
£3.80 up to 4 hours
£5.00 maximum daily charge
There are also several private car parks, including one on Stafford Street, which offer daily parking for around £3.
