    Spanning the #RiverSevern amidst the lush #ShropshireCountryside, the Iron Bridge in Ironbridge is an iconic #HistoricBridge and part of the celebrated #IronbridgeGorge. Recognised as a #WorldHeritageSite, it is famed for being the world’s first major bridge constructed from cast iron, symbolising the birthplace of the Industrial Revolution. Visitors can stroll across the bridge and enjoy sweeping views of the wooded gorge and the picturesque village below. The area is a popular destination for history enthusiasts and walkers exploring the scenic trails along the riverbanks.

    We went to Fountains Abbey today. @ric might have enjoyed the walk, but I was mostly looking at the remnants of historic lime finishes. Here are the photos I took with us in, the rest are mostly lime.
