Black Country Living Museum

The Black Country Living Museum is an open-air museum of rebuilt historic buildings in Dudley in Worcestershire. It covers twenty-six acres of former industrial land in the centre of the Black Country, ten miles west of Birmingham. It encompasses a former railway goods yard, disused lime kilns, a canal arm and former coal pits.

The Museum has since added over fifty shops, houses and other industrial buildings relocated from around the Black Country, where demonstrators portray life spanning three hundred years of history, with a focus on 1850-1950. (Read more)
