A little history

Willenhall was the lock-making capital of Britain — the town produced the majority of British door locks, padlocks and key mechanisms from the 18th century. The Lock Museum, in a Victorian locksmith's house, tells the story. The craft skills of Willenhall locksmiths were unequalled.

📍 Local tip

The Lock Museum is genuinely fascinating. The town centre for local Black Country character. Wolverhampton is close for wider amenities.
