The origins of the town are now very obscure due to intense coal mining during the 18th and
19th centuries that destroyed any archaeological evidence of Darlaston’s past. The de Darlaston
family owned Darlaston and lived in the manor between the 12th century and 15th century.
Due to being located on the South Staffordshire Coalfield, Darlaston became industrialised very
early in its history. The first industries were cottage industries and anyone wishing to mine the
coal had to apply for a copyhold from the lord of the manor. In 1698, Timothy Woodhouse was
manager of the coal mines belonging to Mrs Mary Offley, who was the lady of the manor. In the
first year he sold 3,000 sacks of coal and later went into partnership in his own business.
Darlaston also had a windmill which is mentioned in a map of 1695.
On 1 January 1895 Darlaston became an urban district, and the local board became Darlaston
Urban District Council. In 1966, Darlaston became part of Walsall and in 1974, it became part of
the metropolitan county of the West Midlands.
Many Victorian terraced houses were demolished during the second half of the 20th century, and
the Urban District Council of Darlaston built thousands of houses and flats to replace them with.
Since 1966, Darlaston has been part of the Walsall borough and is now in the WS10 postal
district which also included neighbouring Wednesbury.

2. Mining subsidence, which has taken its toll on many buildings across central England, has also
made its mark in Darlaston. In 1999, a council house on the New Moxley housing estate
collapsed down a disused mineshaft while its occupants were on holiday. The adjoining house
also had to be knocked down. Since then, the council owned housing stock in Darlaston has
broken away from Walsall Metropolitan Borough Council and is now controlled by Darlaston
Housing Trust.
