A little history
Tipton is a quintessential Black Country town — iron and glass manufacturing, canals and community. The Dudley Canal and Dudley Tunnel (3,172 yards — one of England's longest) pass through the area. The town has strong working-class industrial heritage.
Dudley Canal Trust boat trips through Dudley Tunnel are genuinely extraordinary. The Black Country Living Museum (nearby) for the industrial story. Dudley Castle for the views.
