Birthday treat 2022.

21st to 24th April 2022
 
Four days in Bridgnorth to start my sixtieth year.
 
Staying at the very pleasant Golden Lion. Comfortable room and good beer and breakfast. Interesting local characters.
 
 Bridgnorth, Northgate.
 
Steam trains! The Severn Valley Railway Spring Steam Gala. Another heritage line ticked off.
 
 Severn Valley Railway, Arley.
 
 
Funicular! Bridgnorth Cliff Railway linking High Town and Low Town. I have a hankering to eventually ride every UK funicular.
 
 Bridgnorth Cliff Railway upper station.
 
 
Ironbridge. Last time I came here was in about February 2009 and everything was absolutely bloody freezing. This time was a lot warmer and seemed to be visiting Steam Punk day.

And a rather nice old National Trust property, Benthall Hall.
