A short run today into the Black Country Living Museum, Dudley where we will stay for the weekend and get to meet up with some more of our friends here that we didn't see today. They have been very busy building here since 2020, when Covid kicked off, lots of new building work completed, and still under construction. See captions for details.

Reversed back and moored near the Dudley Canal and Tunnel Trust
One advantage of getting here early in the season and on a weekday is there are few visitors around to spoil photos, but it is school children day today
The new 'Elephant & Castle' pub from Wolverhampton
It looks really good
Inside looks good too
We just had to have a pint each of Banks's Mild
Some of the new 1940's/50's60's street still to be finished
The cream coloured cottages on the right are the iron cottages that have been moved from further up the site, the new building on the left still being worked on is the new industrial section
The new entrance building, with Jo chatting to Sarah
Sarah is on bus clippie duties today
The new entrance building as seen from the path from the new car park
The other end of the 1940's/50's60's street still under construction, but coming along nicely
Nice spot to just sit and contemplate
