We visited the British Ironwork Centre at Oswestry yesterday having discovered them on-line when we were looking for a new cast-iron post-box for our house. We are having electric gates fitted so the letter-box in our front door would no longer be accessible. In the shop, we were assisted by Louise who was enormously helpful. We had gone with nearly a dozen possible options drawn from their website. For those items that were in stock, Louise got the warehouse to bring over the actual items so that we could see them and ended up buying an item which wasn't on our list but we are very pleased with it. We ended up buying a house-number plate and a cast-iron tea-pot as well. We had a delicious lunch in the cafe where we were served by 2 very pleasant members of staff. We also had tea and cake before we left having had a very successful day in terms of purchases

We live in Oswestry town and for the first 4 years this marvellous place lay undiscovered. I think we thought it was just curly wrought iron garden furniture. Then friends came to visit and were told they must go and see it. We were all amazed at what we found. It is a one off amazing place to visit! We now go regularly and are really proud to have such an attraction on our doorstep. Clive, Sophia and their lovely team of people always make every visit special and welcoming. I buy gifts there that you cannot get anywhere else and at such affordable prices too. You can have your cake and eat it too, as the café is wonderful and varied. Nothing is too much trouble and you will see something new every time. We went in the other day when the band was rehearsing for their proms night and ended up sitting on a garden seat outside which was so comfortable that we bought it! We went in for a coat hook! So you see you never know what you may find! They also do so much for our town and have taken on the tourist information duties too as the town council could not keep their building going further up the road. So may projects and ideas to enhance everybody's lifestyle and budget. I could go on and on, but go and see for yourself! You will not be disappointed. I must say a big thank you to Sophia, Louise, Emma and all the staff that helped with our bench.

Brilliant day out, even in adverse weather. Very talented people. Excellent welcome from Paula, super quirky cafe.

Absolutely love coming here lots to see and do if you want a day out this is the place to be. The cafe is good fresh food daily.

We decided to visit this attraction after talking with mother in law about her two coach visits. We were a little unsure as MIL is almost 80 and were quite a bit younger, however we were surprised as its a place for all ages. We searched for entry prices on the website before going, but couldn't find anything. When we arrived we were greeted by a most charming gentleman with a Union Jack apron and a bright red bowler hat he explained that entry was FREE, but if we'd like to become a member, we would get 10% off everything in the showroom, shop and cafe. Expecting a 'surprise' we asked how much the membership was? - he replied £1 and we were blown away!! We decided to have two memberships, a massive £2, and got two plastic membership cards which apparently last for a year. He explained everything about the place and we got on our way!! What a big WOW factor, some amazing items everywhere you looked. As it was lunchtime, we decided to sample the Cafe it was very reasonably priced and excellent quality and choice, topped off with the added bonus of a voucher for free re-fill of drinks at anytime that day. Membership fee paid for already!! The experience was amazing and cannot be given an accurate credibility in a short review like this. Thanks for a great experience, we'll definitely return and look forward to it immensely. We say don't miss it as it has to be the best value for money attraction we've experienced.

A must day out, wonderful metalwork good food and only one pound to enter, A great British day out..

Fantastic for the price, ie free, very interesting place plenty to see, shops are stuffed full of interesting and weird gear, the sculptures are amazing the food is not extortionate overall a day well spent.
Would imagine that on a nice sunny day you could prob spend the entire day there.
I will let you know cos I shall return.

I wanted to thank you for all your extra efforts... I absolutely LOVE the item. You were so kind and patient with me, and I appreciate it.

Such a unique place to visit. No entry fee and no charge for parking makes for an affordable day out. So many beautiful metalwork statues to see and admire animals (life size) to the Knife Angel. Birds of Prey, Potters, blacksmith, jeweller and more all on site, nice cafe within a shop area. Never seen anything like this attraction anywhere else. Will definitely visit again and again.

Stopped off unplanned on a trip to Oswestry after my parther spotted the garden gazebos as we drove past. Had to turn round at the next island to go back, but so glad we did. Great selection of all manner of metal garden ornaments and structures and the Ironwork "zoo" was incredible. Could easily spend a couple of hours there and intend to re-visit when next in the area and have a little more time.

Absolutely fantastic. Friendly, welcoming and unique!

Really struggled to find an ornate, very large planter for my wife at Christmas

British Iron Works had a very large cast iron original India cooking pot

Perfect and delivery was also very prompt

Very worth a visit if you are looking for something different

The British Ironworks Centre in Oswestry is a wonderful family place full of incredible sculptures, inspiring items for the home, a gift shop packed with Shropshire and British products and a cafe that serves great coffee and cake. What's not to love?!

First time being to the center as a local well worth the visit kids would love the day out loads going on for everyone staff happy to help and friendly place to visit

The staff were all friendly and helpful, the cafe had a great selection of food and drink, but the thing that makes the ironworks unique is the amazing sculptures. Ranging from huge creations that boggle the mind, to smaller items that would compliment any home. If you want a truly enjoyable day out, then look no further than the British Ironworks.
