Series 4 Episode 10: Tim Hamilton: Black Country Living History Museum
Sunday, 31 August, 2025
Welcome to this episode in the new series of Local History Matters, the podcast run by the British Association for Local History (BALH) to highlight hidden local histories. In this series, we will be discussing with researchers how they got into their field of study, and what their topic can tell us about local history more generally. In this episode, Tim Hamilton talks about his work with the Black Country Living History Museum. Tim Hamilton, one of the trustees of the British Association for Local History, has worked and volunteered in the museums and heritage sector for over a decade. He's a local history writer, tour guide, curator, and a mental health ambassador with Safe in Our World — a charity supporting the video game industry and its players. At the heart of everything he does is a passion for community, connection and storytelling. You can follow along with the conversation about this podcast by using the hashtag #LocalHistoryMatters, and keep up to date with the work the BALH does by visiting our website https://www.balh.org.uk/ or following us on social media @BALHNews.
