The museum of the Gorge was built in 1834 in a gothic style and once served as the Severn Warehouse for the Coalbrookdale Company. Goods would be brought down from the furnaces and forges in Coalbrookdale and shipped down the river Severn to the markets of Gloucester, Bristol and the Empire beyond.

The Iron Bridge that crosses the River Severn in Shropshire. Opened in 1781, it was the first major bridge in the world to be made of cast iron, and was greatly celebrated after construction owing to its use of the new material. Tolls for pedestrians were collected until 1950. A 1923 reports suggested that the main span of the bridge was in poor condition, and the bridge should be used by vehicles no heavier than 2 tonnes. It is now closed to all but pedestrians and cyclists. The PiP shows the toll charges.

The Saturday Challenge: This week's challenge: Vintage/Retro - take a new photo of your choice and make it look like it's from an earlier era. You can choose the era. In the original photo I removed wires and TV aerials using Photoshop. I then used Pic Monkey to age the photo, and applied a fairly standard Victorian frame. This challenge was difficult for me, as I don't do very much post processing, but was given hints. Thank you Val. :-) The PiP shows the original image Pierre Moerlen's Gong: Time Is The Key
