Birmingham has so many fantastic small museums, little known about, surely in danger of disappearing? Avery Historical Museum is up there with the
pen museum,
transport museum,
Avonscroft buildings museum and the
jewellery quarter museum, as a real jem, and also as an opportunity for some serious creative work with schools.
Maths, science, history of industrial revolution, got it all. Amazing Soho Foundry history - see original wood roof supports incredible cellars, home of experiments, research and trade secrets that changed the world.
