Bordesley Abbey is the site where monks used to live 800 years ago! Archaeologists dug up the remains of the abbey and found lots of interesting objects that tell us a lot about how the monks lived and what life at that time was like! Can you guess the answers to the true or false quiz? Come to the museum and find out if you were right!

Forge Mill used to clean & polish sewing needles that were sent all over the world; Redditch needles were very famous! The local people that worked in the mill worked very hard and did not earn much money! The water wheel that made the machinery move still exists today and if you come to the museum you may be lucky to see it in action!
