About Fencing in Stourbridge
Stourbridge became the birthplace of modern British glassmaking, its industry established in the early seventeenth century by glassmakers from Lorraine in France, who were drawn by local coal and fireclay ideal for furnaces. By the nineteenth century Stourbridge craftsmen were considered among the finest in the world, with the town's glass as internationally famous as Nottingham lace or Stoke on Trent pottery.
