This fascinating set of photographs shows how Wolverhampton has changed and developed over the last century.
The West Midlands city of Wolverhampton has a fascinating history. Originally a medieval market town, it grew rapidly during the Industrial Revolution through the new coal-mining and manufacturing industries because of its mineral resources, particularly iron, coal and limestone. With the decline of these industries in the late twentieth century, Wolverhampton has had to change yet again, but in spite of the many changes that have occurred here the city has retained its identity.
This fascinating selection of old and new images of Wolverhampton will be essential reading for all those who know this part of the West Midlands.
