Jackfield Tile Museum

[1] The museum lies in the village of Jackfield, near Broseley, on the south bank of the River Severn in the Ironbridge Gorge, in Shropshire, England.

Jackfield is one of the oldest known ceramic production centres in Shropshire, a tradition dating back to the 16th century.

Craven Dunnill gave up its Jackfield works in the early 1950s, moving to Bridgnorth, and the buildings were used by a firm making iron and bronze castings.

In 1983, the Ironbridge Gorge Museum Trust purchased the works with the aid of an Architectural Heritage Fund grant.

[3][4][5][6] The collections include work by William De Morgan and other historic tilers.
