The ruins at Weoley Castle are over 700 years old and are the remains of the moated medieval manor house that once stood here. The site has been inhabited from the 12th century and, according to the Domesday Book, was part of the estates of William Fitz Ansculf. Weoley changed hands several times between 1485 and 1531 when it began to fall into disrepair.

The Second City and the Venice of the Midlands are just two of the monikers of Birmingham, an alive and diverse city. The instantly recognisable discs of the Selfridges store at the Bull Ring juxtaposed with St. Martin’s Church only a few hundred yards away. Behinds these sits the bustling market which is filled with people selling anything from fabrics to food. This comes too with the expected plethora of activities to choose from.
The Birmingham Art Gallery and Museum hosts the Staffordshire Hoard exhibition of Saxon gold, while the Back to Backs are houses from another preserved in the centre of the city. As befits the heart of the Industrial Revolution, museums with a focus on industry and science include ThinkTank at Millennium Point, the National Motorcycle Museum, Cadbury World, the home of chocolate, and the Forge Mill Needle museum in Redditch.
