Severn Valley Way

view from the iron bridge

Steep and relatively low on traffic

George and Dragon (photo added) is the Good Beer Guide Pub in town (although I had a very dodgy pint). Old School charm and worth seeking out.

"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

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

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.
