Description: | Queen Square looking up High Street and Dudley Street (left). The image clearly shows the horse-drawn cab rank to the left. Also to the left is the Swan Hotel - distinguishable as the building with the swan above the central portico. Note the 18th century buildings adjacent to it. Also clearly seen to the right is the statue of Prince Albert on horseback, erected to commemorate the visit of Queen Victoria to the town in 1866. The premises of Simpson & Steen the printers can also be seen behind the statue. | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/2.0/uk/ | Publisher: | Wolverhampton Archives | Rights holder: | Wolverhampton Archives | Subjects: | Photograph Black Country Architecture Statues Buildings Victorian period Streets Shops Roads and road transport Hotels Printers Photographs Edwardian period People | Temporal: | c. 1870 | Source: | Black Country History | Identifier: | http://www.blackcountryhistory.org/colle... | Go to resource |
