I DON'T believe it! What on earth are our councillors thinking of in proposing to close our museum at Forge Mill.

Many people from all over Britain and indeed the world visit our unique needle museum, either in person or on the internet.

If the Cistercian monks at Bordesley Abbey had not started the process of needlemaking in the area of the "Red Ditch", I doubt Redditch would have grown into the town it is now.

It is a disgrace our councillors could even think about it.
