The “Grand Old Lady” of Ironbridge, 21st May 2023 (Author’s Collection).
A short but very sweet edition of my early Summer walks this year, and enticed with a bacon roll and some bread for the ducks, my son joined me for an enjoyable stroll beside the River Severn in Ironbridge this morning.
Care to join us for a while?

A favourite view from the bridge detailing the entirety of this brief river side walk, from Coalbrookdale to here, the very centre of Ironbridge.
My spiritual home of Ironbridge.
Another favourite view from the bridge and here the River Severn continues to flow on toward Jackfield and Coalport heading south toward Bewdley in 30 or so miles.
The oldest iron bridge in the world.
View from the raised platform beside the commemorative statue to the two World Wars.
Forever beautiful Ironbridge.
