Experience England of yesteryear as you explore over 26 acres packed full of recreated and rebuilt shops, homes and industrial workshops at Black Country Living Museum.
Located in the heart of the West Midlands, the Museum tells over 300 years of history, from the Industrial Revolution to post-war prosperity, through living interpretation.
Visitors are invited to step inside each of the buildings to say ‘Ow am ya?’ and chat with the people that made this place home, from metalworkers and miners to midwives and schoolteachers – and even a pub landlord or two.
They will discover the history of a small region that made a big impact on the people, culture and industry of the world and understand why the area was called ‘the Black Country’.
There are many experiences for visitors to enjoy that will take them back in time. They can go underground in the drift mine to find out what life was like for an 1850s miner or watch a short film from the silent era in the 1920s cinema.
They can see classic cars, vans and motorcycles and even ride on a vintage bus. Or perhaps take part in an Edwardian school lesson – but be careful not to get the cane!
The latest addition, a 1940s-60s high street, is open for business and shares popular culture of the time. Visitors can meet new historic characters, find out about maternal care in the 1960s, see the latest fashions, taste nostalgic sweets, listen to trend setting vinyl records, and shop in the 1950s butchers.
For those of you who are thrill seekers, head over to the fairground to experience traditional rides, dare to try the Ghost Train or have a go at old-time stall games.
And, as you delve into the past, why not buy some of the famously bostin’ fish and chips, pick up a paper bag of traditional sweets or get a round in… enjoy a Babycham in the stylish 1950s pub or have a traditional cask conditioned beer in the spit-and-sawdust Bottle & Glass Inn.
