Broseley Pipeworks
Step into a time capsule – a former clay tobacco pipe factory exactly as it was when workers left in the 1950s.
Find out why the Victorians loved to puff on Broseley pipes.
See inside this curious factory, abandoned by workers in 1957, and get an eerie glimpse into a world and industry that have long since passed. Broseley was the centre of clay tobacco pipe manufacturing and pipes made here were celebrated as being the very best.
Admission is by timed tours at 1.30pm and 3pm.
All of the Museums will close at 2.30pm on Monday 2 July, Wednesday 5 September, Tuesday 9 October, Wednesday 7 November and Tuesday 11 December for staff training. We apologise for any inconvenience caused.
