Abstract: |
An archaeological building record was made of 44-74 Enville Street and 1-4 School Street, Stourbridge, West Midlands (NGR SO 898 844) for Dudley Metropolitan Borough Council and was conducted in conjunction with desk-based assessment of the study area. The overall character of Enville Street during the Victorian period was typified by small terraces utilised for both residential and small-scale industrial purposes that became increasingly given over to commercial use during the early twentieth-century. Terraced housing of the kind within the study area was once typical of those towns that underwent industrial expansion throughout the mid-to-late 19th-century though large-scale demolition of such properties has meant that in some areas they are becoming increasingly rare. The buildings have a greater significance as a group than as individual properties and represent an interesting chronological cross-section of the process of urban development in the Black Country. |
