The Darby Houses museum is one of ten Ironbridge Gorge Museums administered by the Ironbridge Gorge Museum Trust. It is based in the village of Coalbrookdale in the Ironbridge Gorge, in Shropshire, England within a World Heritage Site, the birthplace of the Industrial Revolution. The Darby Houses comprise the adjacent properties of Dale House and Rosehill, both of which were built for members of the Darby family in Darby Road, Coalbrookdale. ==Dale House== Dale House was originally built in 1717 for Abraham Darby I and looks out over the Upper Furnace Pool whose outflow powered the blast furnace. This Abraham Darby married Abiah Darby and they had several children.〔Nancy Cox, ‘Darby , Abiah (1716–1794)’, Oxford Dictionary of National Biography, Oxford University Press, 2004 (accessed 25 Sept 2015 )〕 Abraham and Abiah moved to their new house, Sunniside, in 1750. Dale House was enlarged by subsequent generations: in 1776 Abraham Darby II converted the attic into a third floor. During the 20th century it was converted into flats, which undermined the true character of the house, but has since been restored as much as possible to its 18th century appearance.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title= Darby Houses )〕 It is a Grade II listed building.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title= Name: DALE HOUSE List entry Number: 1280279 )〕
