It's a fantastic place to go. So informative about the local area's history. Something for all age groups. Health and safety in these trying times is no problem with either open air or one way systems. A great day out. Try the Furnace Kitchen, great food in a great location. Fantastic

A very interesting and spacious set of former forges and ironworks buildings. A great monument to the industrial revolution. Very pretty and educational walks around the periphery. Very good café next to the museum.

Of course I love it I worked there for 2 decades!
No seriously it's wonderful. Not only educational but fun and full of interest too. 6 sites spread over 4 sq miles so take your time!

We went to the indoor part as it was raining. It was really good for the kids. It was a science centre and we spent 2 hours there. So many practical activities. The main attraction was a giant hydroelectric dam model that included lots of wet play. There is also a soft play area for toddlers. Overall the place is highly suitable for kids from toddlers to year 6 I'd say.
Cafe and vending machines too.
Gift shop has educational and fun stuff. Sweets too.

Just returned from a super day at the Victorian Town museum, Blist Hill. Plenty to see and was enhanced for the fabulous weather. Very knowledgeable volunteers and paid staff who in most cases were in period costume. Probably was more of interest for the older visitor as it was interesting to spot things that you remember from your granny's kitchen etc. However it seemed to have had a lot of 'hands-on' experiences for children during the holidays. Not the cheapest place to go and if we had been staying in the area longer we probably would have bought a passport but we did get a full day out of it, though a few extra things had to be paid for separately. I would recommend this venue (and the classic pub across the road - All Nations Inn).

Fabulous - absolutely loved the Victorian museum and we filled two days with visiting this and two other musuems; barely scratching the surface of what's available. Signed up for annual pass and feel like we've already had good value over those two days. Definitely get fresh chips from the fryer and head over to the Bakery just after noon for fresh baked goods (cinnamon bun is the best I've ever tasted)! We skipped the noon headmaster schooling lesson as we thought it might be a little too scary for our 4 yr old (who's due to start school in September) but we'll definitely return to experience it when they're older.

Ironbridge has many very good museums and they produce a passport type booklet that lets you visit each at a reduced rate, it also gets 'punched' at each one and that helps to plan your day, as it is very hard to see all the mighty fine properties and exhibits in a single visit. there are many things to see dealing not only will the iron workings but the way we used to live and not so distant history , all in all if you want a good area to visit I do'nt think anyone could be disappointed as there has to be something for all

Not much hear other than large model of the gorge. There is a film to watch and a gift shop and pay and display parking right out side. The passport ticket is good value if you are in the area for a few days.

The place is great is kids loved it. I would avoid the older ladies at the main reception who are very unwelcoming and make you feel like you aren't worthy of their attention.

Great value for the amount of museums you can visit. Very well presented. Only thing that would make it better, would be a shuttle to get from place to place so you don't have to keep moving your car. Though I do like that you only have to pay once and it covers several car parks.

Fantastic insight into the Victorian era. Walk down memory lane at Blists hill and eat proper fish and chips fried in lard. Visit the sweet shop or bakery for a treat.

Myself, husband and 7 year old daughter went to ironbrige museum today (1.5.17) have to say it was amazing. We had our photo done and the lady who took the pic was amazing with my daughter. All the staff we meet were very enthusiastic about their job and the rolls they played, the really made it an experience room remember! Would highly recommend to anyone who enjoys this kind of thing. We spent all day there and didn't get bored. My daughter loved it and keeps asking to again. Thanks to all who made our day a fab one and amazing memories for us. Would defiantly go again!! Thanks xx

Went to Enginuity, found that there were more smaller exhibits that the big ones they used to have. I have a 3 yr old who loved the older big exhibits more as they involved 'balls' and 'placing balls' somewhere, he was very dissappointed as the smaller ones involved being lifted up, at this age they love their independance.

With so many sites this has to be one of the best museums in the country. It's only a short walk from where we live so we bought a friends membership which allows us to go, with a friend, whenever we like. Great value.
