Jackfield Tile Museum

As you wander through the original gas-lit trade show room, galleries and period room setting you will be able to see, touch and even walk on magnificent British tiles. Galleries show exquisite examples of individual tiles and period room settings depict various locations that would have been decorated with tiles. You can walk through an Edwardian Tube Station, the bar of an Hotel, a children’s hospital ward and a 1930s ‘front room’. Huge panels depicting mediaeval stories and nursery rhyme scenes have been rescued from buildings and now grace the walls of the galleries. Find out how the different varieties were made; encaustic, embossed, dust press and tube-lined. On certain days you can see the Craven Dunnill factory in operation.
