Tours of Broseley Pipeworks
Little has changed at the Broseley Pipeworks since it ceased operating as one of the UK’s last producers of clay tobacco pipes in the late 1950s. Take a tour of this amazing time capsule with one of our guides.
- Booking essential
A recent donation of the wages ledger for Broseley Pipeworks has allowed us to research the families of the workers from circa 1900. Our archives hold a wealth of information and we invite you to find out more about the lives of ordinary working people.
Tours last approximately an hour with a chance to explore the exhibitions and displays at the end.
