Forge Mill Museum & Bordesleyabbey Visitor Centre
Museum & Art Gallery in Redditch, Worcestershire
Forge Mill Needle Museum in Redditch is an unusual and fascinating place to visit. This historic site illustrates the rich heritage of the needle and fishing tackle industries. Models and recreated scenes supply a vivid illustration of how needles were once made, and how Redditch once produced 90% of the world's needles. On the same site, just a very short stroll from Forge Mill Museum, are the ruins of Bordesley Abbey - a medieval Cistercian Abbey which has been extensively excavated.

These exhibitions are housed on the middle floor of the Mill building. There is no additional charge to enter the exhibitions, since the cost is included in our normal admission rates. In this exhibition, James uses his art to challenge our expectations regarding gender roles, work, culture and other aspects of our social and personal lives.
