Visit our museum at the oldest West Midlands Fire Service Station (1923) and see appliances and equipment from the early days of firefighting up to the present day. Items include a ‘steamer’, several manuals, trailer pumps and various equipment carried on fire engines.
Due to the layout of the old fire station, there is a maximum of 8 people per tour and tours must be booked in advance. Guided tours are £6 pp (under 5s free) with all monies going towards the Heritage group to maintain our museum. There is no onsite parking, but there is on-street parking in the area.
