More about Wednesbury Sandwell West Midlands
Wednesbury is a town in England's Black Country, part
of the Sandwell metropolitan borough in West Midlands.
Originally, it is believed that Wednesbury was founded
as an Iron Age Hill fort. Wednesbury is one of the
oldest parts of the Black Country. The "bury" part of
the name indicates there may have been an Iron Age fort
or "beorg" on Church Hill as long ago as 200BC, and the
town was certainly a key defensive feature of the
kingdom of Mercia.
In 1086, the Domesday Book describes Wednesbury
(Wadnesberie) as being a thriving rural community
encompassing Bloxwich and Shelfield (now part of
Walsall). During the Middle Ages the town was a rural
village, with each family farming a strip of land with
nearby heath being used for grazing. The town was held
by the King until the reign of Henry II, when it passed
to the Heronville family.
In 1315, coal pits were first found and recorded in
Wednesbury - which led to an increase in the number of
jobs that Wednesbury offered.
Mediaeval Wednesbury was very small, and its inhabitants
would appear to have been farmers and farm workers.
However, by 1315 coal had already been discovered and
was being worked. Nail making was also in progress
during these times. William Paget was born in Wednesbury
in 1505, the son of a nail maker. He is noted as having
risen to the position of Secretary of State, a Knight of
the Garter and an Ambassador. He was one of executors of
the will of Henry VIII.
In 1769, Wednesbury's canal banks were soon full of
factories as in this year, the first caal was cut,
linking Wednesbury's coalfields to the Birmingham
industries. In the 17th century Wednesbury pottery -
"Wedgbury ware" - was being sold as far away as
Worcester, whilst white clay from Monway Field was used
to make tobacco pipes.
By the 18th century the town's main occupations were
coal mining and nail making and with the introduction of
the first turnpike road in 1727 and the development of
canals and later the railways came a big increase in
population.
Wednesbury became notorius in the 1740s for its
persecution of the new Methodist movement lead by John
Wesley. Francis Asbury, Richard Whatcoat and the Earl of
Dartmouth are among those who attended Methodist
meetings in the town, and all of whom were in different
ways to have a profound effect on the United States.
In 1887, Brunswick Park was opened to celebrate Queen
Victoria's Golden Jubilee. The year before this,
Wednesbury had became a Municipal Borough. During the
later half of the 20th century, Wednesbury's industry
declined, but new developments like the automotive park,
the retail park and the pedestrianisation of Union
Street have given a new look to the town. The
traditional market is still a feature of the bustling
centre; while the streets around Market Place are now a
protected conservation area
Wednesbury became a municipal borough in 1866, and
continued in existence until 1966 when it became part of
the County Borough of West Bromwich, which then itself
merged with the County Borough of Warley in 1974. It
gained the postcode WS10 which is shared with the town
of Darlaston - part of the Walsall borough. The postal
address for Darlaston is now Darlaston, Wednesbury.
Wednesburys bus station is located in the centre of the
town near the swimming baths and links are available to
Wolverhampton, Birmingham, West Bromwich and the
shopping complex of Merry Hill.
It is served by the Midland Metro light rail (tram)
system, with stops at Great Western Street and
Wednesbury Parkway. The system's only maintenance depot
is also located here. The current line runs from
Wolverhampton to Birmingham, and a proposed extension to
Brierley Hill is set to open in 2008.
