Draft Tipton Local Lists DRAFT TIPTON LOCAL LISTS Consultation Document July 2013 IL0 - Unclassified Building Appraisal Data Sheet Site: St Marks Church, Ocker Hill Road Tipton Summary NGR: SO 992 919 Type: Church Materials: Brick and tile, stone dressings Date: 1849 Condition: Good Assessment Recommended for Local List: Yes Recommended for Statutory List: No Significance Local: High Regional: Medium National: Low DESCRIPTION St Mark's ecclesiastical parish was formed on 3rd September 1845 and included Ocker Hill, Toll End, and Lea Brook, and the adjacent parts of Tipton parish. The church at Ocker Hill opened in November 1849 at a cost of £2,500, raised by grants and subscriptions. The church building is constructed of blue brick with stone dressing to the windows and buttresses, in the Early English style, designed by Hamilton & Saunders, consisting of a chancel, nave and aisles, south porch and a turret, containing one bell. The chancel was restored in 1910 and a new organ chamber added. The living is a vicarage, in the alternate gift of The Crown and the Bishop of Lichfield. On the East wall is a memorial to the men of the parish who died in the First World War. RECOMMENDATIONS The church is largely unaltered and its setting is retained within the established graveyard. It is considered to be of sufficient architectural and historical importance to be added to the local list.

The structure was erected in 1838-9 at a cost of more than £5,000 raised by subscriptions and grants and includes a nave, chancel, aisles of 7 bays with lancets, and western tower with pinnacles containing one bell. St Pauls ecclesiastical parish was formed on 22nd December 1843. RECOMMENDATIONS The church is a local landmark within Tipton Town centre and is a good architectural example of a Victorian church.

This is a relatively simple design of brown brick, blocky west front, paired, arched side windows and low passage aisles. RECOMMENDATIONS The building is a landmark within the street scene being immediately adjacent to Victoria Park. REFERENCES Pevsner N, ‘The buildings of England – Staffordshire’ p282 4 IL0 - Unclassified Tipton Site: St Martins Primary School Summary NGR: Type: School Materials: Brick and slate Date: 1861 Condition: Good Assessment Recommended for Local List: Yes Recommended for Statutory List: No Significance Local: High Regional: Medium National: Low DESCRIPTION St Martins School situated immediately adjacent St Martins Church which is Grade II listed and dates to 1795. The school dates to 1861 and would originally have been a Sunday school attached to the church but placed itself under government inspection and became a public elementary school and therefore became one of the early national schools alongside St Marks School at Ocker Hill. These schools were inspected by the Government Inspector, receiving Government grants and by 1871 St Martin’s National School accommodated 560 pupils. The building is single storey having symmetrical end bays porch entrance doors to the side elevations including arches and keystones supported on Corinthian capitals which would have been the original girls and boys entrances. The building is constructed of red brick in Flemish bond with masonry paint to the primary facade with slate roof and incorporates detailed dentil courses. RECOMMENDATIONS The school is of historical importance within Tipton and is of good quality architectural detail which whilst incorporating modern windows still merits local listing. REFERENCES http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tipton Hackwood, F.W. ‘History of Tipton’ p132 RCHME 1991 Survey 5 IL0 - Unclassified Tipton Site: Alexandra High School, Alexandra Road Summary NGR: Type: School Materials: Brick with stone dressings Date: 1927 Condition: Good Assessment Recommended for Local List: Yes Recommended for Statutory List: No Significance Local: High Regional: Medium National: Low DESCRIPTION The school opened in 1927 as Tipton Central School and served as a local grammar school for boys and girls. It acquired Grammar School status in 1946 and was renamed Tipton Country Grammar School accommodating a total of 700 children. The school expanded in 1962 providing a new school hall, kitchen, dining room, swimming pool, gymnasium and science classroom. The school became a comprehensive school in 1969, following its amalgamation with Park Lane Secondary School. Further buildings were added to the site in 1980 and a new sixth form centre was added 1995. More recently in 2011, the older buildings were partly re-built. The original school of 1927 remains largely unaltered despite the later additions to the site. It is a single storey quadrangle brick building in Flemish bond with some stone embellishment and retains its original form having a symmetrical composition with entrances to each wing engraved in stone ‘boys’ and ‘girls’. The main façade incorporated projecting gables which are embellished with stone dressings. RECOMMENDATIONS Despite the expansion of the school, this building retains its original form, as shown on the OS map of 1938 and given its historical association within Tipton merits local listing. REFERENCES http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexandra_High_School_and_Sixth_Form_Centre http://www.tiptoncivicsociety.co.uk/brief-history-of-tipton.php 6 IL0 - Unclassified Tipton Site: Horsley Heath Post Office Summary NGR: Type: Post Office Materials: Brick and Terracotta Date: 1895 Condition: Good Assessment Recommended for Local List: Yes Recommended for Statutory List: No Significance Local: High Regional: Medium National: Low DESCRIPTION Horseley Heath Post Office was erected in 1895 by Gibbs and Canning and is constructed of red brick in Flemish bond with buff terracotta decoration to the door and window surrounds, which includes crowns above the doorways. The gable features incorporate a mock tudor style. The postal service increased substantially from 1861 onwards with the average weekly number of letters increasing from 16,700 to 43,700 by1891. The stage coach running between Worcester and Birmingham conveyed the mails and the horses were changed at Kidderminster and at the “Swan” at Swan Village RECOMMENDATIONS This building is worthy of local listing for its terracotta decoration and its historic association with the growth of the postal service. Despite now having extensive modern buildings to the rear of the site, the original building of 1895 still provides a land mark feature on the route towards Great Bridge.

It was open on 29th July 1901and the lane was renamed Victoria Road in Queen Victoria’s honour. Victoria Park is 13 hectares in area and was awarded English Heritage registered parks and gardens Grade II listing status in March 2001. The cenotaph is one of the prominent features within the park which th commemorates those Tiptonians who fell in the Great War of 1914 to 1918 and was unveiled on 24 August 1921 by the Marquis of Cambridge. RECOMMENDATIONS Given that it forms part of the historic park and for its communal value it should be included on the list REFERENCES http://www.tiptoncivicsociety.co.uk/resources/TCS%20Newsletter%20Nov%202007.pdf English Heritage 8 IL0 - Unclassified Tipton Site: Entrance Gates, Victoria Park, Victoria Road Summary NGR: Type: Cenotaph Materials: Cast Iron Date: 1850 Condition: Good Assessment Recommended for Local List: Yes Recommended for Statutory List: No Significance Local: High Regional: Medium National: Low DESCRIPTION Victoria Park was developed out of derelict mining land next to Randoll’s Lane to commemorate the long reign th of Queen Victoria.

THE Old Non-Parochial Registers of Dudley, COMPRISING THOSE OF THE SOCIETY OF FRIENDS, THE OLD MEETING HOUSE, THE INDEPENDENTS, THE WESLEYAN METHODISTS, THE BAPTISTS, AND THE METHODIST NEW CONNEXION. EDITED BY ARTHUR A. ROLLASON, Member of The Parish Register Society, The William Salt (Staffordshire) Archaeological Society, The Worcestershire Historical Society, The Harleian Society, The British Record Society, &c, &c. DUDLEY Printed hy the "Herald" Press, 210, Wolverhampton Street, 1899. PREFACE. The Act for the Civil Registration of Births, Marriages, and Deaths came into operation on ist of July, 1837, which superseded for civil purposes the Old Parochial and Non-Parochial Registers. It has been repeatedly urged that the Registers before that date should, for the purposes of preservation, be transcribed and printed. Many old Parish Registers have been printed by private persons and by the Parish Register Societies, and such work is steadily progressing throughout the country, but very few of the old Non-Parochial Registers, which supply much supplementary matter, have as yet been published. The Parochial Registers of Dudley, which commence in the year 1540, comprise 22 volumes to the year 181 2. There is every likelihood of the transcription and publication of those Registers being undertaken by the Parish Register Society. The Old Non-Parochial Registers of Dudley, here produced, contain over Three Thousand entries of Births, Baptisms, Marriages, Deaths, and Burials of Nonconformists from 1656 to 1837.

    HITCHMOUGH’S BLACK COUNTRY PUBS WEDNESBURY (Inc. Kings Hill, Mesty Croft) 3rd. Edition - © 2014 Tony Hitchmough. All Rights Reserved www.longpull.co.uk INTRODUCTION Well over 40 years ago, I began to notice that the English public house was more than just a building in which people drank. The customers talked and played, held trips and meetings, the licensees had their own stories, and the buildings had experienced many changes. These thoughts spurred me on to find out more. Obviously I had to restrict my field; Black Country pubs became my theme, because that is where I lived and worked. Many of the pubs I remembered from the late 1960’s, when I was legally allowed to drink in them, had disappeared or were in the process of doing so. My plan was to collect any information I could from any sources available. Around that time the Black Country Bugle first appeared; I have never missed an issue, and have found the contents and letters invaluable. I then started to visit the archives of the Black Country boroughs. Directories were another invaluable source for licensees’ names, enabling me to build up lists. The censuses, church registers and licensing minutes for some areas, also were consulted. Newspaper articles provided many items of human interest (eg. inquests, crimes, civic matters, industrial relations), which would be of value not only to a pub historian, but to local and social historians and genealogists alike. With the advances in technology in mind, I decided the opportunity of releasing my entire archive digitally, rather than mere selections as magazine articles or as a book, was too good to miss.

Introduction 1.1. This report provides a detailed description of the consultation processes undertaken for the proposed extension to Midland Metro Line 1 from Wednesbury to Brierley Hill. The consultation process has been a continuous dialogue with certain key parties. In particular Sandwell Metropolitan Borough Council (SMBC) and Dudley Metropolitan Borough Council (DMBC), as both local authorities and project partners, have been intimately involved in the project's development. 1.2. Major public consultation exercises have been undertaken on two occasions during the project's development. These have sought the public's input to the process to ensure that the best possible scheme is promoted that takes account of the needs of the area and people using it, together with mitigating the potentially detrimental effects of the construction and operation of this Metro route. 2. Background 2.1. Midland Metro has been operating from Wolverhampton St George's via Wednesbury and West Bromwich to its terminus at Snow Hill Heavy Rail Station in Birmingham City Centre since its opening in 1999. Centro and its partners are now proposing to extend Midland Metro to create a network across the West Midlands. The first phase of the expansion will be two new routes.
