Journey Through the West Midlands's Four Pillars of Industry
The West Midlands region has long been a heartland of industrial might, its identity forged by four key industries.
From the thriving canal networks that once transported raw commodities to the clanging factories spewing goods, these pillars constructed a tapestry as diverse as the people who called it residence.
Firstly, we have the forge, where iron and steel were refined into the building blocks of progress.
Secondly, the fabrication industry flourished, with factories churning out apparel that covered a nation.
Thirdly, brewing and agriculture operated vital parts, providing sustenance and liquor to the ever-growing inhabitants.
Finally, the transport systems connected these pillars, creating a system of trade and exchange that spread throughout the land.
These four pillars evolved over time, adapting hobs to new discoveries and challenges, but their legacy remains deeply embedded in the West Midlands' society.
