Two of the village's attractions are the parish church, which is the only one in the country dedicated to St Benedict Biscop, and the cricket ground, which is one of the few walled-in grounds to survive.

For many years now, we've been inviting visitors to our website to add their own memories to share their experiences of life as it was, prompted by the photographs in our archive. Here are some from Wombourne
Sparked a Memory for you?
If this has sparked a memory, why not share it here?
The first day of starting Ounsdale was terrifying, we had moved to the area the day before, no friends, new house, new area, new school but wished I could turn back time.
My name was the brunt of jokes especially for one student in my class and a neighbour and sadly no longer with us.
I have still have the 1971 photo remember sitting there while the photographer took so long to take the photograph, remember some of the teachers but headmaster Hoppo was scary!
I would dearly like to contact a good friend that I had at Ounsdale called Kevin Simcox (Oxo). If anyone has any idea where I can contact him please leave a message. He lived in Dickinson Road and had a sister whose name I can not remember.
Our first visit to Wombourne was an invitation from the Cashione family, Billy Buns Lane - we all met in France on holiday. Phylis had 3 daughters and was a widow; she was a lovely lady and have since lost all contact! 2 years ago I passed through Bratch lock on a canal boat with friends and decided to ring but no answer; the twin daughters and Debbie must all be married now but would love to be in touch - any ideas?
