About this space

1930s Street is an Outdoor Space in the Black Country Living Museum that recreates a 1930s high street.

Design: The street presents closely spaced red-brick terraces, narrow pavements and traditional streetlamps that form a compact, linear streetscape under open sky. The frontage includes timber-framed shop windows and a hard-paved road that slopes gently through the scene.

Features: The space is outdoors and naturally lit while retaining clear paved circulation for staging and photography. The area has venue Wi‑Fi and a PA/speaker system and permits own music or a hired DJ. The route is step-free and wheelchair accessible, and accessible toilets are available nearby.

Ideal for: Creative teams and social groups seeking a relaxed, sociable walk-through or standing format in an outdoor historic setting.

What sets it apart: The street has been used as filming locations for period productions, providing a recognisable, camera-ready backdrop.

What guests say: The street is convincing in its historic detail and creates an immersive atmosphere. The street's staff wear period dress and interact with visitors, enhancing the staged experience.
