Forge Mill Needle Museum & Bordesley Abbey Visitor Centre
The Forge Mill Needle Museum tells the fascinating and sometimes gruesome story of needle making in Victorian times. The Mill is a listed building which houses original water powered machinery. Models and recreated scenes provide a vivid illustration of how needles were once made and how Redditch came to dominate the world needle trade.
The ruins of Bordesley Abbey are only a short walk from the Mill. A medieval Cistercian Abbey, which has been extensively excavated. The Visitor centre tells the extraordinary story of the Abbey from its early development in the 12th Century to its destruction in the 16th Century by Henry VIII, during the dissolution.
