Claregate

Here, a cluster of businesses are located including a filling station originally named Claregate Garage,[2] hairdressers, boutique, sandwich shop and barbers.

There are also shopping parades at the junction of Green Lane and Blakeley Avenue with a Premier convenience store, Chinese take-away and a children's nursery amongst other businesses.

A hardware shop, a Co-operative Food store, an off-licence and two fish and chip take-aways are situated on Pendeford Avenue at its junction with Green Lane.

In 2012, Marston's Brewery announced plans to construct a mini Tesco supermarket on land that currently forms part of The Claregate's car park.

The scheme faced opposition from a local campaign group called Residents Against Marston's Proposals (RAMP),[6] but was approved in November 2012 on the condition that the store close at 10pm (although currently (2018) opens 7am to 11pm), and a pedestrian crossing be installed on Codsall Road.
