Nice little informative museum, 8 minutes walk from Walsall railway station. Free entry and staffs were welcoming which makes it worth £5 donation at least. They sell some heavily discounted branded leather goods which is worth a visit just to hunt for some present.

I have visited this museum on many occasions and consider it a must see for anyone who comes to visit. The initial doubtful response we get is usually replaced by increasing curiosity especially when reacting with the very skilled and informative staff demonstrating turning leather into goods. It seems almost any animal skin can be made into leather with the appropriate process. You will learn that although Walsall became to be known throughout the World for it's skilled workers in leather it was the production of lorinery where it all started. Definitely worth a visit.

I didn't know about Walsall's history of leather until visiting the museum. Some fascinating facts to be discovered and the chance to make a personalised keyring!

Excellent and informative, will be a shame to see it move, the building is part of the history. The staff were very helpful and friendly and especially the guy who gave the demonstration. Kids with us were thrilled.
