Black Country Museum celebrates industrial heritage in Easter events
Visitors discovered the awe-inspiring industrial might of the Black Country over the Easter weekend.
The Black Country Living Museum, where parts of Peaky Blinders is filmed, took families on a journey back in time, giving visitors a chance to watch demonstrations and other activities during the weekend to celebrate the industrial heritage. The Industrial Might event, the first of its kind at the ever-popular museum, showcased the region's vital place in history.
A jam-packed schedule, which included live demonstrations and hands-on activities for all ages, took place across the four days.
Visitors had the opportunity to watch a woman chainmaker, visit the underground drift mine, visit the nailmaking workshop which was at its peak in 1820 when there were 50,000 nailers at work in the Black Country and visit the Boat Dock Yard – once home to thousands of boats.
The museum has a host of other exciting events coming up.
