About Wolverhampton
Wolverhampton is an industrial, commercial
and university city and metropolitan borough in the
English West Midlands, traditionally part of the county
of Staffordshire. In 2002 the city had a population
of 239,358. The city was named after Lady Wulfruna,
who founded the town in 985. The name literally comes
from Wulfruna's town on the hill (heaneton meaning
town on the hill). It is often abbreviated to "W'ton"
or "Wolves". The city council's motto is
"Out of darkness, cometh light". The United
Kingdom government announced on December 18, 2000
that Wolverhampton would be granted city status, making
it one of three "Millennium Cities".
Wolverhampton lies northwest of its larger neighbour
Birmingham, and forms the second largest part of the
West Midlands conurbation. To the north and west lies
the Shropshire and Staffordshire countryside. It is
the 13th largest town or city in England, although
its local authority boundaries are drawn much more
tightly than most other authorities, and includes
no other towns of major size. As a district, it is
44th largest in England. Unlike most metropolitan
authorities, Wolverhampton did not increase its population
in the major 1974 reorganisation of local government
(which included the creation of Metropolitan Counties),
as it already exceeded the target population size
of 250,000 people. This means that many other authority
areas, whilst being traditionally much smaller, show
up as 'larger' in most population size listings. The
traditional area associated with the city extends
far outside its local authority boundaries, including
areas that are currently within Walsall, Sandwell
and Dudley metropolitan boroughs, plus areas of South
Staffordshire district. In fact, were the boundaries
of the former Royal Peculiar (1479–1846) in
effect today, Wolverhampton would have a similar population
to that of Manchester. Wolverhampton city centre falls
outside of the area known as the Black Country, although
some districts such as Bilston and Heath Town fall
within the Black Country coalfields, leading to confusion
as to whether the city itself falls within the region.
This confusion is not helped by the names of UK Government
regional bodies such as "The Black Country Development
Corporation", under whose remit the city falls.
Districts within the city include Bilston, Wednesfield,
Tettenhall, Bushbury, Heath Town, Compton, Blakenhall
and Oxley. In addition to this, areas within the traditional
districts of Willenhall, Coseley and Sedgley are to
be found within the city boundaries. Wolverhampton
has a great range of places to visit, parks and gardens
to enjoy, entertainment, nightlife, shops, accommodation,
arts and culture and sporting events throughout the
year. If you require guides, leaflets hotels or general

area, contact the Tourist Information Centre
