Mount Pleasant in Bilston, Wolverhampton
This is the B4484 looking towards Willenhall from outside the Library and Craft Gallery. The approaching small bus is on route No 545 which is a local run between Bilston and Wolverhampton. The large building on the left is now occupied by Social Services (Children) offices. It was formerly the 1930s rebuilt offices of Bradley & Co. Ltd (Beldray), a large company manufacturing domestic hardware, which closed in 2005. The terraced houses on the left, together with more beyond the offices, were originally built by Bradley's specifically for the use of senior staff. http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/2814171

Beldray factory offices
The company was a substantial manufacturer of domestic hardware, latterly specialising in ironing boards. There is an excellent history on the Wolverhampton local history website http://www.localhistory.scit.wlv.ac.uk/Museum/metalware/beldray/beldray00.htm
This office block was built some time in the 1930s and is an excellent example of Art Deco industrial architecture. After the firm moved out it was sold to Wolverhampton Council, and now houses part of its Social Services department. It has been excellently refurbished, with many of the original interior features being retained. Locally listed.

Beldray logo
The firm's original name was Bradley & Co, and the name 'Beldray' was created as an anagram of Bradley. The logo is a rebus on the name, consisting of a bell on a motor lorry or dray, and probably dates to the 1920s judging from the style of the lorry and the typeface.
