Wall is a small village and civil parish[3] in Staffordshire, England, just south of Lichfield. It lies on the site of the Roman settlement of Letocetum.

The parish includes the small villages of Pipehill, Hilton and Chesterfield, and the tiny hamlet of Aldershawe, which is about 12 mi (800 m) north of the village of Wall.

The nearby junction of the A5 and A5127 roads and the M6 Toll motorway is often referred to as 'Wall Island'.
