World Heritage Site

The Ironbridge Gorge was the birthplace of The Industrial Revolution 300 years ago, and this incredible valley is still amazing visitors today.

With the world's first cast Iron Bridge built over the River Severn in 1779, and ten museums spread along its banks, the Gorge is celebrating 25 years as a World Heritage Site, and the area plays a unique tribute to its amazing past.

But in Ironbridge Telford, the memories of the past walk side-by-side with a whole new tourism revolution.

Restaurants, unique shops, guest accommodation and a host of attractions make the area perfect for visitors with high expectations.

On Visit Ironbridge, you can search for hotels, B&Bs and self catering accommodation. You can also download a free Ironbridge Gorge World Heritage Site map and find information on car parking in Ironbridge.
