Broseley was famed for its clay pipes. The factory is the last of around two hundred manufacturers of the famous Broseley Clays which were exported all around the world. The building with the original bottle kiln is now preserved as part of the Ironbridge Gorge Museums. The ironmaster Abrahaham Darby is buried in the Quaker burial ground.
