Last but not least my mate Jenkins, good to see you again

That's 12 if you count me and Tess, we wanted to enjoy the walk with our friends so mom didn't take photos on the day of all the places of Historical interest because we've blogged about this walk before.

But I have put together a whistle stop tour of the places we past

The Jackfield Tile Museum

Maws Craft Museum

Can you see Flat Stanzie, love you

We stopped at The Boat Inn

Check out the flood door!

Mmmm, got myself some Guinness froth

Up the foot bridge that takes you over the river 

The Great Hay Inclined Plane.

 It was used to carry small barges up and down from the Shropshire Canal terminus at Blist's Hill down to the River Severn. 

We walked along this foot path passing

The Coalport China Museum

"Frankie" mom's not forgot about taking FG around : ) 

On to The Silkin Way

Under The Inclined Plane

Through a long tunnel

Down into the woods with loads of steps

Stopping at The Robin Hood Inn for a drink and a rest

Colin turned up for a drink

A very kind barman came out and give us all milky Bones

This is Frank, he was just passing and couldn't believe he eye's seeing all us, he lives local so might meet him again

Boomer thought it was time to make a move



Passing The Bedlan Furnaces

Ending the walk at The Ironbridge

Saturday Steps

I told you I was on a secret mission,

Well it was to help Boomer out.

The first time I visited Delidale

in the post

 Ironbridge NOT

I left my blogging card with the owner, and later I got an email from Boomer saying he is doing a book about  dog friendly walks around Ironbridge and Coalbrookdale, and is looking for  Canine Chums to test out the walks and do a comment to go in the book.

I was soo excited, me being asked if I would like to do a walk, yes please

I was to do

The Historical Walk

Which just so happens some of it I had done on the post

Our Third Walk From The Book

So here are some photos taken on the secret mission
