Visited Enginuity because we like hands on exhibits and this was so much fun. Although definitely intended for children/younger age group we released our inner child and haven’t played or laughed so much in ages. Darby Houses are worth a visit if you are interested in social history. Both houses were open but because only one guide was available for both we relied mainly on the info provided in the rooms. There is the opportunity to dress up afterwards. More social history was provided in The Daily Grind exhibition which was well worth visiting. Coalbrookdale Museum of Iron was very interesting showing its progress through history from how iron is formed to the finished products.

We have now visited all Ironbridge museums and now on our return visits can highly recommend buying a 12 month pass. Our favourite place we visited is The Tar Tunnel you need to check the opening times. The staff at all the museums are lovely and very helpful 😀 Great days out.

What is open and available is mostly excellent. Mostly very well presented and well thought out. Let down by day to day matters that should be resolved, but often are not. We bought a "Pass Plus" 12 month access ticket, or so we thought. Several of the museum sites are only open for limited times of the year. Apparently due to a heavy reliance on volunteer staffing shortages. Check out opening times, and seasons before committing yourselves. Also be aware that parking is charged as an extra, over and above admission charges. A brilliant Organisation (The Trust) that is let down by some of its marketing strategies.

We went to all the museums that were open and together they gave a really good picture of the start of the industrial revolution and are within enthusiastic walking distance of each other. The exhibit are well done and all of the staff were friendly and well informed. We went in early November - when the opening hours change to Wednesday - Sunday only. There are good value global and family tickets and if you live locally you can visit repeatedly.

We bought a Pass Plus ticket and fitted in 4 museums in 2 days. We more than covered the cost as it included free parking (normally £1 per hour) and discount on purchases in the shops and restaurants, and better still is valid for 12 months. The museums are all located in original working buildings, are well laid out with clear information, and the staff/volunteer helpers were all friendly and helpful Excellent value for money!

We purchased an annual pass to the Ironbridge Gorge Museums last year as there are so many you couldn’t complete them in a week! It was very good purchase. We finished the last of Museums last week and indeed revisited the Victorian Village! If you have young children the Victoria Village is a must. There is a magnificent play area at the end of the Village which would entertain any child for as long as you would let them. There are a number of very good restaurants throughout and every taste catered for. During the Summer months a live Funfair operates in the middle of the Village. Complete with Punch & Judy Show! If you decide to visit give yourself plenty of time as it is vast and lots of walking should you wish to do so. One other quirky thing for the kids is a functioning Bank where you can exchange your £ & change for ‘Old Money’ and shop prices are shown in Decimal & Old Money. I know I’ve gone on about the Victorian Village a lot but it’s worth it. The other Museums are each in their own right worth a visit. Maybe not for kids but you will always learn something new in each! Enjoy!

The Museum of Iron was our first stop on this trip. Plenty of car parking and if you go mid week it is not too busy. We had bought passports to Ironbridge 25 year previous and after making a phone they were still valid. On our entrance into the visitors area the lady behind the desk, and also looking after the shop was amazed at the passports. Her comments "I need to find my hole punch". Eight tourist attractions and this is how they know which you have been to. The museum of iron is all about the different things made, the different minerals that go into the making of iron. Also about the people who worked there and the living conditions they endured. After the sights of the museum we had the wonderful experience of a guided tour of the old furnace. Our guide Steve Hudson gave us the most enjoyable history lesson. He was informative and very knowledgeable., being a person who was born and bred 5 miles up the road. We visited Coalbrookdale for the china museum which was also very interesting, although there was not a guide there, enough information is on display as you walk around. Jackfield tile museum is amazing. Thousands of tiles but the best part was the area where the tiles of Aesops Fables were. Try to decipher the old English writing. The Ironbridge museum is not very much, but you do get some great views and pictures of the bridge. Overall a great 2 days away and if you are people that like to walk then most of the museums are within 1 - 1.5miles from each other. Parking at all of the tourist sites are £1 for every hour and most of the machines only take card payment.

A group of 10 museums; must be something for everyone! I loved the Jackfield tile museum most. SO many tiles; so varied and well supported with information, especially the last gallery. Inspirational

Amazing value. The pass for all attractions is great value, we spent a couple of days which were both enjoyable and interesting. So much to see and beautifully preserved. A delve into our fascinating history lesson with added fun. Enjoyed every moment and all the staff were lovely. All the sites were fascinating. A couple of the sites are only open certain days / times so check beforehand when planning your visit for the best experience. Unforgettable.
