ウォルヴァーハンプトンでののおすすめライド

Fab black country ales pub. Outdoor seating and a place to park the cycle is around the back. Lah te dah opposite is a great café but the star attraction is Hewitts the butchers. The pork pie is a peppery triumph, sausages are amazing and the family pies delicious.

Always worth a stop here really good value lovely cake £1.20 and flapjack 60p instant coffee £1.20

Halfpenny Green Airport makes for a nice bike stop. Once you follow the blue line to the cafe, avoiding those fast things coming in to land as you cross the runway, you can have a nice half hour or so watching the planes land and take off whilst enjoying a coffee and bun!

A great pub, selling lovely bar baps (full menu too) and a good choice of Black Country ales, bitters and lagers 🍻

The Monarchs Way will run on a permissive path through farmers fields, avoiding the official route along the lane. I may not have been paying attention but I saw no exit from this path and before I knew it, I was in an area marked "ticket holders only". The only way out was through the gift shop!

It’s not a lion lol It’s Dusty the horse

Nice stop. Not recommended for large groups.

Only if they love a good hill climb. Not for the faint hearted.

Beautiful surroundings.

Bratch Locks is said to be one of the prettiest sets of canal buildings on the Staffordshire and Worcestershire Canal. It was opened in 1772 and includes the lock, a bridge, the lockkeepers cottage and a toll-house. Today the towpath offers miles of easy traffic free cycling and a safe way between Wombourne and Wolverhampton.

"In order to be able to transport his goods, the ironworks owner Abraham Darby III was looking for an architect who could build him a stable bridge made of "stone, brick or wood" across the five-kilometer-wide valley of the Severn in central England. Thomas Pritchard accepted the challenge, but he built a bridge made of cast iron, the completion of which in 1781 marked the beginning of the new "Iron Age". It was the largest free-floating bridge construction of the time. Built at the highest point of the valley, the Iron Bridge became a symbol of the industrial power of the Darbys and a monument to the Industrial Revolution." With these words, the website for the television series "Treasures of the World - Heritage of Humanity" presents its film contribution (in German) about the UNESCO-recognized World Heritage Site "Iron Bridge": https://www.ardmediathek.de/video/schaetze-der-welt/ironbridge-grossbrittanien-folge-156/3sat/Y3JpZDovL3N3ci5kZS83MTUyMDA4

Beautiful thatched cottage next to a lily pond. Ideal for that special ride photo.

Nice comfy pub, pleasant refreshment stop.

Great little bridge, single file for cars with small footpaths either side.

Has anyone got tips on affordable but good car rack for a bike? 🙂 would love to do this tour around Ironbridge.

Completed in 1818, Coalport Bridge is a historic single-arch cast iron bridge that spans the River Severn in the Ironbridge Gorge in Shropshire. The bridge embodies the rich industrial heritage of the region and, in contrast to the more famous Iron Bridge located two miles upstream, it still carries vehicular traffic. Traffic crosses the bridge one way at a time and is subject to a height limit of 6 ft 6 in. Coalport Bridge is arguably more impressive to view than the Iron Bridge because of its lean and streamlined design. The bridge is best-viewed from either upstream of downstream as crossing the bridge will not display all of its merits.

Bratch Locks were planned and built by James Brindley back in 1772. He constructed two bridges, a toll house and lock keeper’s cottage, all built in mellow brick, making it a favourite photogenic and artistic spot. The entire area forms one of the prettiest groups of canal buildings on any canal system anywhere.
