Description: | The buildings of Moxley Foundry Company Ltd., in Frederick Street, adjoining Thomas Street. They were part of the first purpose-built car factory factory in Wolverhampton, and belonged to the Star Motor Company. They were erected around 1905, and followed the familiar factory design of the late 19th century. They became the headquarters for Star, until car production ceased here in 1928. Moxley themselves no longer inhabit the building, but part of the building (August 2000) is still occupied. The spire of St. John's Church can be seen to the left. | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/2.0/uk/ | Publisher: | Wolverhampton Archives | Rights holder: | Wolverhampton City Council | Subjects: | Photograph Motor industry Photographs | Temporal: | May 1994 | Source: | Black Country History | Identifier: | http://www.blackcountryhistory.org/colle... | Go to resource |
