Etymology and history
Hamm / Ham has the meaning fenced land or encompassed by moats pastures , Kloth / Klot called a raise, a hill.
In the 19th century, Am Hammerkloth belonged to the Uellendahler Rotte of the Lord Mayor of Elberfeld . The place is labeled on the Prussian first recording from 1843 as Brechlefeld , on the Wuppertal city map from 1930 with Am Hammerkloth . Address books from 1850 alternately use the spelling Hammerkloth and Am Hammerkloth .
In 1815/16 there are 12 inhabitants. The place categorized as Kotten according to the statistics and topography of the Düsseldorf administrative district in 1832 was designated as am Hammerkloth and at that time had two residential buildings and three agricultural buildings. At that time, 13 residents lived in the village, all of whom were Protestant.
In the 1950s the residential area fell into desolation and all buildings were demolished. In the 1960s, the Hans-Böckler-Straße , which passed south of Am Hammerkloth, was re-routed and the area with the multi-family housing estate on Kurt-Schumacher-Straße was built. The farm itself was built on with the primary school in the 1970s.
