Summary
[edit]DescriptionDarlington Street Plaque Wolverhampton.jpg |
English: Darlington Street Plaque Wolverhampton.
Darlington Street was constructed on land belonging to Lord Darlington who sold it to the Town Commissioners for £350 per acre. It opened in 1823 and was constructed by John Worrallow, who had the dubious distinction of being appointed in 1814, to the posts of Borough Engineer, Chief Constable, Sanitary Inspector, Weights and Measures Inspector and Clean Air Officer. When they also appointed him as Markets Manager he went on strike and his annual salary was raised to £80. Work on the street should have started in 1814, but was held up until 1821 when the matter of Red Lion Walk could be resolved. This footpath ran from Salop Street to the rear of the Red Lion Inn in North Street. |
