Wolverhampton & Sedgley Wander

10:30 am
September 26, 2026

We will be going Wolverhampton then catching local bus to Sedgley to visit the Beacon, home of the Sarah Hughes brewery and other pubs. We then return to Wolverhampton to visit pubs there.

As a sample, the return off-peak rail fare to Macclesfield to Wolverhampton is £29.20 (without Railcard) £19.40 (with Railcard). However single advance tickets can be much cheaper but provide no flexibility. To get to Sedgley from Wolverhampton, take bus 1 from outside Wolverhampton Police Station (https://what3words.com/motor.tilt.toward) (there is an alternative bus 27/27A to Sedgley from Wolverhampton bus station bus this bus is slower and less frequent)
