The Green Wood Centre is based in Coalbrookdale, just a short way from historic Ironbridge, and provides an innovative headquarters for Small Woods, set in the woods of the Ironbridge Gorge.
We promote sustainable living through a wood-based economy by running courses and events in sustainable woodland management, coppicing, crafts and related activities. Our activities at the Centre include woodland volunteering projects, fun family sessions and woody events for the whole community.
The inspiring Woodland Hall is available for hire - with its sweet chestnut pillars, peaceful environment and an energy efficient design, this is the perfect venue for a wide range of events. The site is also home to Embers Cafe, a retail outlet for coppice products, the woodland craft area, woodland camp and year-round access to woodland walks around the Ironbridge Gorge World Heritage Site.
Our nearest station is Telford Central. There is a frequent bus service from Telford to the Ironbridge Visitors Centre, just a five-minute walk from the Centre. Click here for details of how to get to us by bus.
Come along for a festive evening and the chance to see the good work we do at the Green Wood Centre. We’ll have Santa and his mischievous elves, singers and musicians, and delicious mince pies too!
The event will offer an ideal opportunity to you start your Christmas shopping as there will be stalls by local businesses selling a mixture of gifts, homeware, food and greenwood craft products.
There will also be greenwood demonstrations, craft making for the little ones and adults, and the chance to have a go at making reindeers and wreaths.
The fair is free to attend, but please register for tickets here >
There is disabled parking on the site and the main car park will be at Dale End car park, in Coalbrookdale, a short stroll from the Green Wood Centre.
