Bilston Street, Wolverhampton, 24th June 1981

            A view of Bilston Street taken from the multi-storey car park in Garrick Street, Wolverhampton on 24th June 1981. To the right of the picture is the old ABC cinema and 'The Clock' public house that were later refurbished to become the Atlantis nightclub. To the left of the picture is the site of the Clifton cinema, which had been demolished a few weeks before. In the background is the John Ireland diecasting factory and beyond that the tall roof of the former Midland red bus Garage. Today, Bilston Street Police Station stands on the site to the left of the picture and the roadway is now the terminus for the Midland Metro tramway.
