Black Country Archive Services

 

The archive services of the Black Country (Dudley, Sandwell, Walsall and Wolverhampton) serve a population of over one million and receive over 36,000 visits a year.

 

During the industrial revolution the Black Country became the workshop of the world - its products were shipped to every corner of the globe.  Our archive collections reflect this rich industrial heritage.  To open up access to these collections we have been awarded over £400,000 from the Heritage Lottery Fund to undertake cataloguing and digitisation.
