"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

The Signpost detailing the history of the Wrekin as a hill-fort and a useful map of the pathways and the permissive paths for this private woodland. Cycling is not allowed without prior agreement, but there are plenty routes in and round that cyclists can enjoy.

Such a great place to go for a hike, can only recommend it. Some sure-footedness required and can get a bit muddy.

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

There is a little stream at the other side of the road, which is amazing to wash your dog off before they get back in the car!!

Amazing views from up here, just wow!!

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.

This majestic woodland located on the slopes of some of the most stunning mountains in the Shropshire Hills is a unique and wonderful place for a walk. The trees rise up high above you as you make your way along a magical footpath, make sure to peek through the trees and enjoy far-reaching views across the surrounding countryside.
