| Abstract: |
The assessment established that the area was developed as planned artisan housing as part of a speculative scheme about 1710. The earliest recorded conveyance for 40 Wade Street was dated 24th July 1707. Documentary evidence survived to identify the residents and their occupations of many of the buildings in the study area until the early 20th century. Neglect and dilapidation of the housing stock led to compulsory purchase and demolition as part of the slum clearance in 1936. Since then, the study area had been left as a largely open area, it was therefore possible that 18th century deposits survived beneath the present grass level.[Au] |
