About Cradley Heath
- The Cradley Heath chain-makers' strike of 1910 was one of the most significant industrial disputes in British history. Women chain-makers, who were among the lowest-paid workers in the country, went on strike for 10 weeks to win a minimum wage under the newly passed Trade Boards Act. Their victory, led by Mary Macarthur, was a landmark moment in the history of the labour movement and women's rights.
- The Mushroom Green Museum in nearby Cradley preserves a working chain-making workshop from the early 20th century, demonstrating the traditional hand-forging techniques used to make chains for the shipping, mining, and construction industries. The museum is one of the few surviving examples of a Black Country chain-making workshop.
- Cradley Heath was one of the most important centres of the anchor chain industry in Britain, producing the massive chains used to moor ocean-going ships. The town's chain-makers supplied chains to the Royal Navy and to merchant shipping companies around the world.
