Harden is an area to the north of Walsall and borders with Bloxwich, Blakenall Heath, Coalpool, Goscote and Rushall. The whole area was part of the industrial revolution, with mining and metal processing being the main industries. Although close to the A34 main road from the Stoke (potteries) to Birmingham, it is still served by canals.
The area mostly developed with council housing from the 1930s, though some of the older properties have been gradually demolished since the early 1990s.
A large area has been left as park land for community use.
