About Fencing in Dudley
Dudley is often called the capital of the Black Country, its eleventh century castle first mentioned in the Domesday Book still standing in ruins within Dudley Zoological Gardens today. The town's rich deposits of coal, iron ore and limestone made it an industrial powerhouse, a heritage now preserved at the Black Country Living Museum, a 26 acre site of relocated historic buildings beside the Birmingham Canal.
