A Day Trip to Blists Hill Victorian Town and Ironbridge

Come with us to the wonderful Victorian town of Blists Hill in Shropshire. Step back in time to where traditional life and industry were a far cry from today. Enter Victorian shops and cottages, taste authentic food and sweets and watch demonstrations of crafts of the day. The site uses token pounds, shillings and pence – remember them? There are plenty of opportunities for refreshments either here or later when we travel the short distance to the UNESCO WORLD Heritage site of Ironbridge. Here you are able to visit various museums, including the Museum of the Gorge or the Coalport China Museum. Some of the attractions are free, and during this free time you can choose the ones you would like to visit. ‘The Ironbridge’ itself, the world’s first made entirely of cast iron, is a definite must. Do book for this excellent day out.
