Parking in Ironbridge (1 Viewer)

[MikeandKath]

Hi. Has anyone recently parked overnight at the Station pub in Ironbridge. Any issues? I am due to be in Telford @ 9am the next morning to have a cruise cotrol fitted. It will be easier than travelling early morning from Ashbourne.

Looks like it's now a restaurant! Give them a ring? http://www.darcysironbridge.co.uk/

Severn Gorge Campsite is opposite Dave Newell's

Good move to get there the night before,traffic is horrendous round Telford at the moment due to roadworks.I would offer our drive in Newport but we met the queue a mile from home so gave up!

The car park outside the station pub / restaurant is a public, pay & display one. Never stayed there overnight (we only live a few miles away!) but I *think* it's got the usual "No overnight parking" rule. Telford & Wrekin Council website blurb (below) seems to back this up. As to if it's enforced or not - no idea, sorry.

If you just want a quiet spot, then look at Coalport (just along from Ironbridge) at the junction of "The Lloyds" and Coalport High Street (the name is deceiving, there's next to nothing there!) - click on the google streetview below:-

See the parking sign pointing up to the left? There's a very quiet little free car park up there, I doubt you'd get disturbed, and it's right next to a footbridge over the river Severn which takes you to a nice pub! About 5 minutes drive from Dave Newell.

Alternatively, as someone said above, Severn Gorge campsite is right opposite Dave Newell.

Telford & Wrekin website says:-

Motorhomes
There are no dedicated parking spaces for motorhomes, however all the car parks within Telford and Wrekin can be used by motorhome owners; though if a vehicle takes up more than one parking bay in a charged car park, then pay and display tickets must be purchased for each bay and car park rules must be adhered to.

We have coach bays in Ironbridge which can also be used for motorhome parking.

Please note: over night parking is only permitted at Southwater multi-storey car park.

If it's Dave Newell's that you're going to, I believe that the Cuckoo Oak, almost opposite his place, allows overnighting.

Robin hood inn will let you stay for free on their car park if you use the pub for a meal.
Food and beer ok, we had a little Facebook meet there earlier this year with 7 vans..
