Step Back in Time with a visit to Blist Hill and Ironbridge

 

Blists Hill Victorian Town offers a unique and immersive journey back in time to the 19th century.

This award-winning open-air museum brings history to life with costumed characters, working Victorian shops, and authentic tradespeople demonstrating traditional crafts.

Stroll through the streets, visit the bank to exchange modern money for old-fashioned pennies and step inside homes, factories, and businesses exactly as they would have been over 100 years ago.

 

Ironbridge is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and the birthplace of the Industrial Revolution, making it a must-visit for history lovers and curious explorers alike.

The town is home to the world’s first-ever iron bridge, an engineering marvel built in 1779 that still stands proudly over the River Severn.

Walking across this iconic structure offers breathtaking views of the gorge and a chance to step into a defining moment in history.

 

Beyond the bridge, Ironbridge boasts fascinating museums, charming shops and riverside cafés, perfect for a relaxing and educational day out.

Why not visit the *Museum of the Gorge to learn about the area’s industrial past, explore the *Enginuity Science Museum for hands-on fun or simply enjoy a leisurely stroll through the picturesque town (*entrance fees are not included)
