Jackfield Tile Museum sits within Ironbridge Gorge at The Gorge, Telford and Wrekin, inside a former tile factory whose products were exported around the world. Open Friday, Saturday and Sunday, you can stroll through recreated settings including a London underground station and a 1940s bar, tracing centuries of tilemaking history, and there's the option to book onto tile making workshops led by Craven Dunnil next door. Visits must be pre-booked. It suits those with an interest in industrial heritage and design, and well behaved dogs are welcome across the wider Gorge site. Free on-site parking is available, Telford Central station is 4.1 miles away, and with 37 bookable places to stay within 5 miles, it's an easy addition to a longer visit exploring the Gorge's museums.
