A little insight into the local area and what we enjoy on our circular walks from www.puddleduckcottages.co.uk
Just a short 5 minute walk takes you to Coalport China Museum which is one of the ten #Ironbridge Gorge museum’s based in the village of #Coalport within the Ironbridge Gorge on the northern bank of the River Severn in #Shropshire.
The museum presents the history of Coalport China, a manufacturer of fine English chinaware which was based on the site between 1795 and 1926. As well as original examples of historic china, there are also demonstrations of traditional ceramic techniques and original industrial buildings including kilns to fire the pottery. The collections include the official National Collections of Caughley and Coalport china.
There is a hands-on workshop area where painting activities are provided and ceramic activities in the school holidays.
Often on our daily walks we find pieces of old Coalport China, so keep a 👀 out when you’re walking about.
🤓 Interesting Fact: The 1985 Doctor Who serial The Mark of the Rani used the museum as a filming location.

The pawfect way to spend Boxing Day is asleep in front of the log burner in your new bed that Santa brought you for being a good boy.
We have some pawsome news to share, meet Rufus who has joined #teampuddleduck’s gardening crew, he’ll be helping his dad Brendon keep Puddle Duck Cottages gardens nice and tidy, well that’s when he’s not busy running about with his new pal Bertie!
Behind the scenes here at Puddle Duck Cottages it’s not just about fluffing pillows and changing beds, we are constantly up keeping the cottages and the gardens for our guests safety and enjoyment.
Due to the two main trees out front having ash die back we have reluctantly had them felled over the past week, we have already planted a native hedgerow to encourage wildlife and we will be working over the coming months to create more wildlife habitat spaces.
