Coalbrookdale museum of Iron, then one Dai put a link up for

That pub is only 9 minutes away from the meusuem so sounds like a good option, does anyone know any good driving roads for before or after the pub?

As an "outsider" i.e. 100+ miles or 2hrs+ drive away,might I suggest the British Motor Museum? O.K. this wouldn't involve a drive around the countryside once met up and at present tickets need to be pre-booked but plenty of free parking to be had and the cafe was[the last time I was there]very good and reasonably priced,so the net could be cast as wide as you like with regard to models attending.

Potentially a better venue on Sunday 5th Spetember

https://classicmotorevents.com/more-info-himley-hall/

A free classic car show, we could all meet somewhere else before hand and drive in convoy to the show, does this sound more appealing to those planning on attending?

Nobody responded, is anyone up for going to the car show instead of the museum?

Either for me.

Anyone bringing family might prefer a venue with non car related things to do

Either would do for me, but the executive decision has to be taken soon, if only to book tickets for the car show.
