Another area of the city near the retail market just waiting for redevelopment, with several disused former retail properties, not all old. The tall brick unit was that of William Evans, Son and Company, a traditional builders merchant, hardware shop and ironmonger, eventually closed down in the late 1990s. An advertisement in the 1884 Wolverhampton catalogue states: WM. EVANS, SON & Co - Brass and Cock Founders, Lock Manufacturors and Factors.
