Re: black Country Day

Happy Black Country day ! Always find it odd the Black Country is called the Black Country there is actually a lot of beauty in the area we thought when we visited.

Under Dudley Castle right in middle of black country. A visit to the Black country museum is well worth the time spent ,where this trip can be taken from












Somewhere I have a video of a chain makers guild strike of the 1920's

Hi

Oops, best not repeat that heresy around there.

Black Country folk hate being referred to as Brummies.

Yes, I was informed that the Black Country was industrialised long before Brummigem, which was more of a trading centre.

I visited the Black Country Museum many years ago when I was training. If I recall, there is a fully working reconstructed Newcomen Engine there, which I found fascinating and therefore opted to do an assignment on it including the making of a working model (though not under steam). I still have it and can't bear to throw it away.
