Gives an interesting insight of the Rosehill House & Dale House and the history of the Darby Family and the Quakers who lived and worked in the area with original furnishings and items on display that tell how some of these individuals impacted the industry in Ironbridge.

You get there under the railway bridge and up a slope on other side. Two houses to see as part of Ironbridge experience. Second house more refurbished than first. There are toilets nearby.

Lots to look at. The highlight was dressing up. And the lady who showed us around, told us lots of interesting information on the house and the family that used to own it.

I visited this place and I liked. Everything in this house originally belongs to the family of Abraham Darby. You can at this house wear clothe Victorian times.
