Archaeological Investigations at Wolverhampton City Learning Quarter, Bilston Street, Wolverhampton
Notice bibliographique
Résumé
An archaeological excavation was undertaken by Worcestershire Archaeology from September 2020 to November 2021 at two sites within the City Learning Quarter off Bilston Road (NGR SO 9168 9840) following on from evaluation trenching. The project was commissioned by Turner and Townsend on behalf of their client, City of Wolverhampton Council, in advance of a proposed redevelopment of the site, comprising the demolition and refurbishment of various buildings on the site, plus the construction of new buildings, for a public education quarter. The site was formerly the location of the Great Hall, a moated manor house known to be in existence by the 16th century and that became one of the major enamelling factories in Wolverhampton in the late-18th to 19th centuries. It had been the focus of previous archaeological work from 2000 to 2007, which revealed parts of the manor house and moat, along with medieval ridge and furrow beneath the clay platform, which had been created with material from the excavation of the moat circuit. Two areas were excavated, that is in the north-east and south-west corners of the site. Two areas were excavated, that is in the north-east and south-west corners of the site. The northern Area 1 revealed a previously unknown redesign of the moat circuit, suggesting that the eastern side of the moat had been backfilled and then extended around the turn of the 18th century. The dating of the original stretch of moat hinted at a possible medieval origin, though this was far from conclusive, and a 16th century date contemporary with the construction of the Tudor Hall remains its most likely date of origin. The excavation also showed how the extended moat section was not excavated as deep as the original, being less than 1m deep compared with the 2m, or more, of the earlier moat. Also revealed was the graduated backfilling of the moat in its final years. When only its north-east corner was extant, a retaining wall was inserted on the west side of the moat channel by way of a revetment. In the southern Area 2, the footprint of part of the 19th century expansion of the enamelling works was evident. This included the remains of the furnace, showing at least three phases of flue construction, along with other adaptations to the design. The buildings identified here aligned well with those recorded on the 1840 Health of Towns map, which also described the function of the different buildings. Here, two earlier ditches were also identified, one of which was likely a land boundary between orchards as shown on Taylor's Map of 1750. The other was probably the outer edge of the south-western corner of the moat.
