Holiday Club for ages 8+ every Tuesday and Thursday of the school holidays. Farm, and Forest School, mud, sticks, marshallows, goats, rabbits etc. Parents do not need to stay. Booking is essential.

Join a drop-in tile decorating workshop between 10am and 2.30pm and try the tube lining technique to produce your own ceramic masterpiece; you could make a collection of coasters, a circular door plaque or a gift for a loved one on a heart shaped tile. Activities vary from day-to-day; tiles cost from £5 each and can be fired and sent home later for a small extra charge to cover postage and packing. It takes up to 1½ hours to decorate your tile so last admission to the workshops is 2pm.

This year marks 175 years of business for Tanners, in light of such we are running a rather unique and event, Tanners 175th Anniversary Dinner. Guests will arrive to a Champagne reception here in our historic Cellars, then it’s a short walk up Wyle Cop to the suitably distinctive Lion Hotel for a three course dinner with wine. Like all good birthday bashes we have an accoutrement to the evening, actor David Bark-Jones and wine industry character Charlie Womersley will entertain us all with a wine ‘Call my Bluff’, with your host James Tanner roped into the panel of expert bluffers it’s a night of good food, eclectic wines and good humour.    

One of the 'must-sees' in the Ironbridge calendar is our fireworks extravaganza. The skies above Blists Hill Victorian Town will be illuminated by a stunning display. Dont miss the iron pouring in the Foundry too.
