We took some friends from London to show them a bit of Midlands history and we were delighted with our choice. Having grown up just north of the Black Country but spent a lot of time around Wolverhampton and area in the 60's and 70's I found the exhibits and demonstrations so interesting and iluminating, our Southern friends equally had... more

Have been here quite a few times as live locally. Most recent visit was in August 09 when i took 2 friends who were visiting me. We had a great few hours here!

Been 3opr 4 times now (live locally, so taking people who visit and stay with us). Everytime has been enjoyable. The best was with my parents, who remembered so much, so made the whole thing come alive, but the godchildren loved it - especially the mine and the boat, and adult visitors have also enjoyed it. It helps if the... more

This outdoor museum is entertaining and informative. There is something for all ages. We shall definitely be going back because you can't see everything in one day. The volunteers manning the exhibits are very knowledgeable and often very amusing. more

Being local & not having visited for quite a while we decided to give TBCM a try last weekend after already visiting Dudley Zoo, Cadbury world and all other locations. Being honest we didnt expect much and the Museum didnt dissapoint. On arrival some creating wordplay was given by the museum policeman offering us the chance of a free return... more

I went to the BCLM on a trip with my British Cultural Studies class, so it was a bunch of university age exchange students. Parts of the trip were interesting, like the coal mine and the canal trip, but the rest of it was quite boring. The fish & chips were good but the line was very long--it would help... more

I think if you go in the summer you could be struggling to get used to the waiting to get in, but as i went in October it really wasnt to bad, even during school holidays, There is loads of things to do like go down the mine, ride the trolley buses and canal trips, the chip shop is only... more

Ok......so if you choose to go to any attraction in the summer holidays you've got to be prepared to queue........40 minutes to get through the door though was not a good start...!!!!!!!!!! My eldest had raved about this place so we took our other two along aswell and I must say I was a little disapponinted by what was on... more
