This memorial dated 1901 marks the site of Lady Wulfruna's well. The Lady Wulfruna endowed the Collegiate church of Wolverhampton with a Dean and Prebendaries in AD994, giving her name to the town: Wulfrun's Heanton (High Town). The tap and drinking cup that once graced the well are a distant memory to only the oldest residents of the borough. A statue to the Lady Wulfrun can be found near St Peter's Church.
