Four Ashes Junction is a light-controlled crossroads on A449 to the north of Wolverhampton.
It is named after the pub in the north-east corner of the junction, as well as the nearby hamlet.
The junction was originally a crossroads, and converted to a roundabout junction on the same site at some point between 1956 and 1965, presumably at the same time as when the A449 was dualled to the north of Wolverhampton. This roundabout was then removed again between 1974 and 1977, and replaced once again by a crossroads junction, before being signalised in 2006. The 2006 work replaced a previous design from circa 2001 that would have re-installed the roundabout at the junction.
