Stourbridge Glass Museum; how it came into being by Graham Fisher (with a Foreword by Lynn Boleyn MBE) is a comprehensive and absorbing account of how Stourbridge Glass Museum, spearheaded by the British Glass Foundation, was created on the vandalised and burnt-out site of the former Stuart glassworks in Wordsley.
The great news is, since its initial launch in 2023 the thing has been selling like hot cakes! Following a reprint in 2024, it has now undergone a further revamp for 2026 to include supplemental pages - at no extra cost - bringing the story of this remarkable gem on the southwestern edge of the Black Country bang up to date.

... and while you're at it ...
You might need a spy-glass to read this, but hey ...
... sign up and spread the word, friends
Lots more to come, folks ...
... so feel free to browse awhile and revel in the absence of a paywall. You are about to enter quite an eclectic website which we hope you enjoy - please do tell us via the 'contact' section. In the meantime, just to get you into the swing of things, here's a cat. Everybody loves cats, don't they? I hear even the Pope does; in fact he's a confirmed Cat-a-holic (with thanks to the master of silliness Milton Jones for that one).
Anyway, here is one such critter that begrudgingly allows us to live chez nous. Regular visitors will recall it was five cats and two dogs, but sad to say that since the last refresh we have lost Will-I-Um the Monster Puss and Gormless Angus the Mutt. They are greatly missed. But here is one of the pussies; this is Maisie the Minx. She is, as you can see, a bone idle slob like the rest of 'em. She is still lying on the same Aga and in much the same position as last time you saw her. The Aga is on. Just hold your ear close to the screen and you can actually hear her innards burbling.(*)
(* And I bet you just tried that!)
OK, SUITABLY FOREWARNED, PLEASE EXPLORE OUR SITE.
JUST BEWARE OF THE CATS; THEY POP UP EVERYWHERE ...
