Description: | A photograph taken from the 'Royal London Building' of Princes Square showing the Criterion Hotel on the junction of Lichfield Street (left) with Princess Street. To the right of the hotel are the Post Office buildings. To the right of the image is the junction of Berry Street (showing the premises of Thomas Howell the wool merchants), with Princess Street. Victoria Square can be seen in the distance at the end of Lichfield Street (left). This image clearly shows the predominance of powered vehicles over horse-drawn at this time, although a horse-drawn cart can seen in Lichfield Street (left). Note that there are trolleybuses and their overhead electric wires, and motorbuses in the same picture. | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/2.0/uk/ | Publisher: | Wolverhampton Archives | Rights holder: | Wolverhampton Archives | Subjects: | Photograph Hotels Buildings Wool industry Streets | Temporal: | 1930s | Source: | Black Country History | Identifier: | http://www.blackcountryhistory.org/colle... | Go to resource |
