Description: | An official photograph of residents of a shared courtyard in Chapel Street and Bradley Street. It was taken as a record in response to a Clearance Order No. 2 of 1934. At the time of the Order there were thirty seven occupiers in the eight houses scheduled for demolition. The 'court' system of building houses round a central courtyard at the back of main streets was typical of densly populated areas such as Bilston and Wolverhampton where demand for housing was such that all available space was used. The houses have now been demolished. | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/2.0/uk/ | Publisher: | Wolverhampton Archives | Rights holder: | Wolverhampton Archives | Subjects: | Photograph Housing Photographs Streets | Temporal: | c 1934 | Source: | Black Country History | Identifier: | http://www.blackcountryhistory.org/colle... | Go to resource |
