Akron Drive near Oxley in Wolverhampton
The St Modwen Developments regeneration on the 88 acre former Goodyear tyre factory site has continued for many years, with housing and the relandscaped Wingfoot Park (now named Goodyear Neighbourhood Park and reopened in 2018), behind the camera. A fascinating nature conservation area there has been built with three linked pools functioning as an attenuation pond, by Ranger Drive.
The Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company is an American multinational tyre manufacturing company founded in 1898 by Frank Seiberling and based in Akron, Ohio.

Former Goodyear Works
There are plans to build housing, shops and re-locate a primary school on to the site which was cleared in 2008. Goodyear opened a factory for their European operations on the site in 1927. The plant was overtaken by new factories opened in Eastern Europe and Far East.
