Hiking

Built by iron-master Richard Reynolds in the 1790s, the Rotunda is believed to have been a circular structure with nine cast-iron pillars and a lead-covered roof. Inside, there was a revolving seat allowing panoramic views of Ironbridge Gorge and The Wrekin. Only the original brick foundation remains today but the view is as good as ever.
