Ironbridge Gorge Museums

About the venue

There are ten Museum sites, all offering very unique facilities.

For the larger event the Engine Shop offers a 400 seat banqueting/conference hall within a recently refurbished Grade II listed building. The impressive ceiling height of this venue and easy vehicular access also make it perfect for small exhibitions and product launches. On the same site at Coalbrookdale, there is also the Elton Art Gallery, ideal for an intimate reception, the Covered Bays, perfect for a summer barbecue, the glass fronted meeting room, a modern conference facility for up to 150 and also the Boardroom, a magnificent room suitable for up to 100 delegates. The Blists Hill Museum, an authentically reconstructed Victorian Town, offers exciting and unique possibilities for an Organiser. The Forest Glen Pavilion is a beautiful Victorian Tearoom which, together with its adjacent fun fair, is a particularly enchanting way to entertain 120 guests. Or the whole town, including the many period shops and a Victorian Pub can be hired for the evening as an add on to events. Adjacent to the Engine Shop is the truly amazing new hands on technology centre, Enginuity, which provides a highly enjoyable and unforgettable venue for pre-dinner drinks or even a buffet dinner, where your guests can become apprentice engineers for the evening.
