Telford Business

Beary Good Spot

The Merrythought factory now operates in a smaller factory in Ironbridge and the unused space has become a hotbed of business space.  We’re taking a look at two of the great businesses operating from the historic site.

The Ironbridge Brewery

The brewery and shop was first opened by former IT consultant Dave Goldingay back in 2008 and prides itself on being ‘brewers of fine real ales set in the heart of the World Heritage Site of Ironbridge in beautiful Shropshire.’

The brewery has become well-known for some of its ales, including its Ironbridge Pale Ale, which won the Shropshire Brewers Challenge Trophy in 2009-2010.

Earlier this year, the brewery announced the launch of a new ‘Craft Beer,’ Ironbridge Craft Gold, a 4.3 per cent continental style beer stored in a keg.
