Woodgreen Pumping Station, Wednesbury 19/06/2011
Situated in Brunswick Park Road, this is the former Woodgreen Pumping Station built by South Staffordshire Waterworks in 1871. Built as a booster station to assist the pumping station located in Lichfield, the steam original pumping engines were supplied by no lesser engineering firm than James Watt and Company.
The Watt engines were later replaced by ones constructed by Harvey and Company of Hale in Cornwall. Harvey’s were of course the famous engineers who did so much for the Cornish mining industry. The final steam pumps were provided by Gallaway of Manchester.
Steam was eventually superseded by electrically powered pumps made by Sulzer Brothers who were based in Switzerland.
The pumping station continued to operate until the 1970’s, when it was made redundant by a new facility in Walsall.
