About Dudley, England 

The British Isles are peppered with towns and cities that are proud of their cultural and social heritage, few more so than the West Midlands town of Dudley in the heart of England's Black Country region. A large part of Dudley's history is represented by its castle, which has stood since the 11th century and is mentioned in the Domesday Book. Today, Dudley Castle is one of the town's premier tourist attractions and boasts an impressive location atop an outcrop of limestone.

Dudley Castle has links to a number of important moments in history, but one of its more fun associations is the fact that it was the very first live venue for the TV show Most Haunted Live on October 31st 2002.

Visitors to the Copthorne Hotel Merry Hill Dudley will find that the castle offers more than an impressive historical spectacle, as its grounds also house Dudley Zoo.

Dudley Castle has a reputation as one of England's haunted locations and people with an interest in the spooky and supernatural will be able to entertain themselves with a number of events this year.

Another highlight for many visitors to Dudley is the Black Country Living Museum, an establishment that is firmly rooted in the past, with historic buildings from around the Black Country authentically rebuilt. Some 26 acres of living history comprise the museum, including a range of modern exhibition halls, an underground coalmine, a tramcar and demonstrations of metalworking, sweet-making and glass-cutting.

Dudley is a town that is proud of its history and heritage but it also offers its visitors a range of modern amenities and entertainment options, at venues including Dudley Concert Hall.

Visitors who fancy making a trip out of the town to explore the surrounding areas have the whole of the West Midlands to choose from. The city of Birmingham is home to a host of venues, including the NEC and the National Indoor Arena, which regularly hold major events, while located a short drive away is Cadbury World. The exhibits at this centre dedicated to all things chocolate are as fascinating as they are mouth-watering.

While its sights and attractions vary from historical and culturally significant to flippant and fun, one thing that is guaranteed not to change in Dudley is the unique and memorable experience it offers to visitors.
