It blazed, it rained, it blew a gale… but still teams of treasure hunters from Brierley Hill and across Dudley Borough raced around historic Brierley Hill, along the Pony Trail route to search for clues and work out where the treasure is hidden. Winners of this event on 28 and 29 August to be announced shortly!
89% of people who gave feedback felt the Treasure Trail had increased their knowledge about the heritage in the area, 94% felt it had given them the opportunity to spend some quality time together as a family.
“We had a lot of fun! Something great to do”
“An enjoyable morning out with the family”
It’s not too late to do the Treasure Trail yourself before the ponies are moved and auctioned off in a couple of weeks!

Over 100 local people also took part in an English Heritage survey about living and visiting historic Brierley Hill using a digital touch screen kiosk. There will be more opportunities to have your say over the next few months – so look out for a silver inflatable tent and lots of free balloons! Dates and locations will be posted on the blog – so watch this space!
Thanks to everyone whom supported this excellent event. Smiling faces, puzzled expressions, whoops of delight as teams cracked the clues! Feedback may reveal many important points but, you know this event
has had a ‘good feel factor’ and many many local people have loved the imagination, colour and fun the
ponies have brought across Breirley Hill. Thany you.
