About Springfield
What are the main landmarks in Springfield?
St Peter's Collegiate Church leads the list. Wolverhampton Art Gallery and the Wolves Museum hold the collections, while Giffard House, Stafford House and St Peter's House stand among the addresses the register keeps under Springfield. Monuments follow.
The Wulfruna Memorial and the Harris Memorial in St Peter's Gardens are both here, with the Hydraulic Engine House left from the industrial side and St Stephen, The King's Church and the Church of St Mark completing the dedications.
What is the history of Springfield?
The Springfield Brewery ran from 1873 until 1991. When brewing ended the site went to the University of Wolverhampton, which built its School of Architecture and Build Environment there together with the National Brownfield Institute, turning an industrial block into a campus. Student blocks came with it.
One of them is the tallest structure in Wolverhampton, which is a strange afterlife for a brewery yard north east of the city centre.
Where is Springfield?
Springfield lies immediately north east of Wolverhampton city centre, inside the ward of Heath Town, on ground the Springfield Brewery once held.
