Today's Novanna testing website hotspot
is Wolverhampton. Given city status in 2000, Wolverhampton is in the
West Midlands and has a population of around 250,000. The city name is
thought to come from the Anglo-Saxon Wulfrūnehēantūn,
meaning Wulfrun's high enclosure or farm. Lady Wulfrun founded the town
in 985, although local tradition also states that King Wulfhere of
Mercia founded an abbey of St Mary at Wolverhampton in 659.
Originally a wool and market town, Wolverhampton grew into a major
industrial city as a result of the industrial revolution. Engineering is
still a major part of the city economy.
