Hey all, hope everyone is ok! I've not been on in a while as I've had a bit of a break from family history for a little bit .
I am proper stuck at the moment regarding a property that was built in 1853. The house is on modern day Stubbs Road in Pennfields, Wolverhampton. I have seen the deeds, and the house was known as "Sutherland", " Sutherland House" and "Northgate". I am currently trying to trace the history of the house for the mother-in-law of who lived there, as the owners never actually lived there it would seem?. When the house was being renovated in the 1980s, the Father in law found pulley systems for servant bells, and a copper well buried in the floor in what was the kitchen. If anyone can please shed any light from census records, I'm all eyes and ears, as I can't find a scrap of information from census records. I know Stubbs Road was formerly Stubbs Lane, and that it was once all fields out the front of the house. There used to be a photograph of the house which was water damaged, from the 1900s, which showed this, and also a tram line or trolley bus outside. Rich
