" Whenever I get the chance to visit this wonderful cottage, I always feel that I am on holiday even though its just a walk away from the centre of Ironbridge. Detached and full of charm and character, set on the hillside overlooking the beautiful Ironbridge Gorge and with just a pathway to the front, it leaves the hustle and bustle behind.  What a lovely setting to enjoy life both inside and outside in the lovely garden and terrace area. 

2 Reception Rooms, Study, Sun Room, Kitchen, 3 Bedrooms, Modern Fitted Shower Room/WC, Many Period/Character Features, Gardens, Timber Store/Shed. Energy Rating: D.

Situation
Ironbridge is a renowned and historic Conservation Area nestling in the Severn Gorge with a charming town centre adjoining the River Severn and the area was at the heart of the Industrial Revolution in the late 18^th and early 19^th centuries. It is a World Heritage Site and home to the world’s first iron bridge constructed in 1779; the wide range of shopping and recreational facilities at Telford town centre is some five miles to the north together with the railway station and M54.

Chapel Road is in actual fact a pedestrian only thoroughfare located halfway up and accessed from Madeley Road on the left hand side just before Belmont Road, high on the upper slopes of The Gorge, but only about 600 yards from the Iron Bridge itself.
