We take you to the Black Country Museum with included entry. Covering 26 acres of former industrial land, BCLM is uniquely placed to tell the story of the creation of the world's first industrial landscape. Over fifty authentic shops, houses and workshops have been carefully reconstructed to preserve the character of the region when its manufacturers bought worldwide fame to Black Country Towns. Take a trip on the tram to explore the canal-side village, explore the underground mine, and experience the authentic sights, sounds, smells and tastes from the past. You may recognise the setting from BBC's Peaky Blinders as many scenes were filmed here.
