Don’t panic! There’s still time to get yourself to Merry Hill and grab those last minute gifts (no one has to know).

The last weekend before Christmas is coming to an end, but there’s still plenty of options left at Merry Hill to solve your gifting woes!

Don’t forget, this is the last weekend before the big day to get the gifts done! Proud of being from the Black Country, or just a big fan? Well, there’s a shop in Merry Hill with exactly what you’re after! There’s also a shop with everything you need for the little ones.

We’re back in Brierley Hill, this time visiting The Waterfront. In this short video our friends at @Local TV Birmingham made for us, you’ll hear a number of existing and forthcoming businesses share a bit about what makes them special and how they’re looking forward to Metro!

A lot has been happening lately on the Birmingham Eastside Metro Extension, so here's a drone perspective from one of our recent tram tests.
