Wolverhampton

Wolverhampton is the hampton of Wulfruna, and the place in the West Midlands, England, where we (mainly Fabrice) live since January (2017), date at which Fabrice took up his position of Director of Studies for Physics.

It is nearby Birmingham (the big local city, in fact, UK's second) and Telford (UK's fastest growing city) and not too far from Shrewsbury, Worcester, Stafford and Coventry. Almost as close are Stoke-on-Trent, Manchester and Liverpool. It is not that even far from London (less than 2 hours).

Stafford street, in the city center, where we live, April (2017).
One of our favourite pubs, after the Hogs Head: the Royal London, (id.)
Typical Wolverhampton skyline, the typical British brick house (id.)
A wall from the old train station (not the one you see now as a traveller, which buries it), July (2017).
Julia in the beautiful Saint Georges' street (id.)
The London bit of Wolverhampton (id.)
It also benefits from the local canal frenzy (31 July (2017)).
Elena on one of our walks along the canal.
In the Victorian (so-called West) park of Wolverhampton, May (2018).
