Shropshire, England Ironbridge Gorge

Get some sun in Shropshire

Shropshire gets more sunlight per day than anywhere else in England so use it well to see the thirty-two castles and ten hands-on museums in and around the city. Known as "the birthplace of the Industrial Revolution" because of its role in the mass production of iron, Shropshire boasts the world's only iron bridge, which opened in 1779 and stands over the River Severn. Want an aerial view of history? Nearby, the RAF Museum is full of vintage aircraft and a brand-new National Cold War Exhibition.

Stoke-On-Trent, England Wedgwood Pottery, Heart of England

Make a pot at century old "Potteries"

Pottery buffs know that there's no more storied brand in the business than Wedgwood. Synonymous with age-old English craftsmanship and fine quality, Wedgwood still operates a factory and visitor centre in the Heart of England. Travel to the ceramic Mecca of England, Stoke-on-Trent, and make your own pot in the Wedgwood Story Visitor Centre. Don't be surprised if the people here call you "duck," a greeting used for men and women by the locals.
