I find your website to be fascinating on several levels. I have been researching my family history which guided me to Guy Beauchamp, my 20th great-grandfather. He is supposedly buried at Bordesley Abbey. Then I found your needle museum. I owned a small needlework shop in Colorado for several years and sold John James needles. I actually lived in England for two years in the early '70s and wish I would have known my family history at that time. You have a wonderful site and I will definitely visit should I return to the UK in the future. Museum Rating: Not Experienced |

I am chair of our Local History Group in a Village Called Thurgoland 11 miles north of Sheffield. the Village on the river Don had three water driven wire mills much of this wire went to the needle industry in Redditch. Do you have any info on wire suppliers to Redditch please Many Thanks M Williams. Museum Rating: Not Experienced |

I can well recommend the museum as being an important insight to days gone by. How an everyday product was made. We have an interest in the industry and will certainly use this as one of our resources and will support future exhibitions and the archive. Museum Rating: Excellent |

The new website is great - one of the best that I've seen lately. Well done! It's easy to navigate, easy to read, great pics, full of interesting information. And the Explore map works really well too. Museum Rating: Excellent |

As a history teacher, I think the medieval medicine workshop looks like a fantastic revision opportunity for all yr11 students doing medicine through time. Wonderful timing! Museum Rating: Excellent |
