Leading up to the opening, hundreds of volunteers had laboured for years to clear 42 acres and unearth the remains of the industrial structures original to the site, including a section of the Shropshire Canal and the giant Madeley Wood Company blast furnaces. More recently, the site also introduced The Madeley Wood Company Outdoor Adventure, named after the company that historically ran mine operations on the site.
"The Celebration Day will be a true reflection of the best that the site has to offer, with a chance to see, hear, smell, taste and touch authentic Victorian history.
