Blists Hill Victorian Town - Ironbridge Gorge, Shropshire, UK

Stepping back in time to 1900 at Blists Hill Victorian Town - a fantastic open air museum that's great for families, one of a group of 10 museums in Ironbridge Gorge, near Telford in Shropshire. The heart of Victorian Britain, with mines, tile works and iron foundries, it has been recreated with a high street (including a sweet shop and working print shop), its own Victorian style pre-decimal money to spend, and houses to visit. One of my own childhood favourites, I visited with my six-year-old to discover it's as good as I remembered - and the staff there are full of fascinating facts as ever. Visit www.ironbridge.org.uk/ for more information.
