Ryders Hayes[1] is a housing estate and suburb[2] of Pelsall in the Walsall district of the county of the West Midlands, England.[3] It is located in the northeast and eastern portions of the village[4] and is bounded by both the former South Staffordshire Line where it was home to "Ryders Hayes Level Crossing" and the junction for former Pelsall - Norton Canes line to Norton Junction[5] and the Wyrley and Essington Canal.[6] It is mostly residential and is also home to Ryders Hayes School.[7] Also nearby is the Ryders Hayes Mere lake, which was subject to wide news coverage after the death of a teenage boy in June 2017.[8]
