Black Country Living Museum
We had a great day at the Black Country Living Museum. The sun shone all day for us. 'The site covers over 250 years of history, from the Industrial Revolution to post-war prosperity. There are over 80 reconstructed shops, houses and industrial workshops, and there are historic characters who brought the history to life with demonstrations in the authentic settings'. Some of us were also able to do the Dudley Canal Tunnels trip operated by the company Skippers.
