It's also in the ironbridge gorge! Which is a World Heritage Site by the way! My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions

rustyruth Posts: 18773 Joined: 23rd Oct 2012 Location: England	Posted at 19:51 on 18th April 2013 Blists Hill opened in it's present form in 1973 which would probably tie in with the date of the other photo of the work going on, Roberts photo's seem to be of the late 1960's early 1970's. I'm quite fancying a visit to this place. My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions

This is the Bedlam Furnaces located on the banks of the Severn between Ironbridge and Coalport. It was used by the Madeley Wood Company and subject of the famous painting by Philip James de Loutherbourg " Coalbrookedale by Night " Edited by: Vince Hawthorn at:18th April 2013 21:27 My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions
