Sightseeing
Ironbridge is the birthplace of the industrial revolution and is steeped with history. No trip is complete without walking over the world famous Ironbridge, but this lovely area has so much more to offer. Within a short distance, you have several museums all of which are worth a visit. You can get an annual pass which does save money. Blists Hill is superb and you should allow 3-4 hours to enjoy walking around the Victorian Town.
