St Peter's ward, Wolverhampton
St Peter's is a
ward of
Wolverhampton City Council,
West Midlands. It has two parts: the city centre (i.e. the area inside the city's
Ring Road), and the inner-city areas immediately to the north and north-west, including
Dunstall Hill and part of
Whitmore Reans.
It is bordered by the
wards of
Bushbury South and Low Hill,
Heath Town,
East Park,
Ettingshall,
Blakenhall,
Graiseley,
Park,
Tettenhall Regis and
Oxley. It forms part of the
Wolverhampton South West constituency.
The city centre includes the main shopping centres (the
Mander Centre and
Wulfrun Centre), the Civic Centre (the headquarters of the city council), the main campus of the
University of Wolverhampton and the terminus of the
Midland Metro.
St Peter's Church is in that part of the ward: it is the principal
Anglican church in the city, and gives the ward its name.
The rest of the ward includes the
Molineux stadium (home of
Wolverhampton Wanderers F.C.), further parts of the
University, and Dunstall Park (the city's
Horse racing course).
