Oak House, Waterloo Street, Ironbridge, Telford, Shropshire, TF8

Ironbridge is a renowned and historic former industrial town nestling in The Severn Gorge, the River Severn cutting its way through the steep and wooded slopes of The Gorge forms one of the most striking and distinctive landscapes in England - worthy of its world heritage site designation. The local architecture varies from the elegant houses of the former Ironmasters to the charming rows of artisan’s cottages stepping purposefully down the Northern slopes - a contrast to the wooded slopes to the South. This remarkable area was at the heart of the Industrial Revolution in the late 18th and early 19th centuries and became world famous in 1779 when the world's first Iron Bridge was cast at nearby Coalbrookdale. Steeped in industrial heritage with local museums giving a glimpse into that history including the renowned Blists Hill Victorian Town Open Air Village at nearby Madeley and the world famous china works at Coalport.
