Blists Hill - Living Victorian Town - A Complete Tour - Ironbridge

Join us as we take a step back in time to the Victorian era, here in England, where we visit the brilliant Blists Hill Victorian Living Museum.
The Blists Hill Victorian Town Museum is in Ironbridge, Telford, UK and is said to be the birthplace of the Industrial Revolution.
We take a complete tour of this Victorian Town, starting off by changing our cash to old money at the Lloyds Bank, all the way to the far end of the town to the Hay Incline Plane.
We join in a traditional music hall sing song in the old pub, and learn about lots of trading skills along the way.
You couldn't visit the Blists Hill Victorian Town without visiting the old chip shop, where the chips are cooked in beef fat, or getting a bag of old style sweets for the journey home.
At the end of our trip to the museum, we head a few minutes down the road into the town of Ironbridge where we look around the town, marvel at the stunning, Thomas Farnolls Pritchard designed, 'Iron Bridge'.
In true postcard and a pint style, we finish of the day with a nice cold pint.
We hope you enjoy stepping back in time with us.

⭐ About Postcard & A Pint:
Welcome to the official Postcard & A Pint KZread channel.
Postcard & A Pint was thought up by my partner, Rachel & myself, Wills one day while taking our daily 1 hour exercise during the lockdown of 2020. All of a sudden, we were spending more time together, not working 6 or 7 days a week in the arts industry, and binge watching travel programs, and we were actually really enjoying it, and it made us re-evaluate what was important in life for us. Now back to working 6 or 7 days a week again, with very little time off, our happy time is getting out there on our brief times off together and making short travel videos that we are now sharing with you. It's just a bit of fun, and great for our sanity. Your support is hugely appreciated x

It is so cool to experience just a bit of what life used to be like in past generations. The actors at these places dressed in period costume are always fun to talk with about what their life was like in the past. Wills certainly had a lot going on in Victorian times.

    I'm not even exaggerating when I say this is EXACTLY the sort of place I would absolutely go wild for. Immersive, recreated history is one of my favorite things... museums with rebuilt rooms, old manors with recreated spaces... a whole village of it and I'd go crazy! We actually have pioneer village in the middle of our city, but it's like a postage stamp compared to Blists Hill. I love that's it's museums within a museum as well. Very meta. Just a lovely place I know we're going to have to check out when we visit. Ironbridge looks fantastic as well! What a quaint, gorgeous place. Perfect spot for a shandy. Thank you for this amazing tour Rach and Wills! One of your best yet!

We have only ever been to one living museum before in York, and we were so impressed how history is quite literally brought to life. Love that they use old money, what a great idea. You really do such a great job of putting together an engaging and fun video to watch, we always look forward to your uploads😊👏.

It's only recently (okay, maybe 20-30 years) that's changed here. Darn, we eat candles quite often and didn't know you weren't supposed too! Beautiful town, lovely architecture, quaint shops, and fun museums. Loved spending the day there with you!

    I love folk museums and Blists Hill looks like a really good one. The buildings were all quite substantial, the little town of Ironbridge was sweet too. Amazing to think the first bridge made of iron was in 1779.

We've not done the other museums together, but I think I've been to Coalport as a child, so we can't really help you on those, but if you want to experience all the shops, talks, music and interact with the 'townsfolk' a good half day should do you.
