The design and technology attraction at Coalbrookdale is giving visitors between Friday 21 March and Sunday 6 April the chance to construct a devious catapult capable of sending a ping pong ball through the air and making it land directly on a special target.

Families accepting the fun ‘techno’ Easter challenge will be given some simple materials to complete there task.

The Eggapult will take place daily between 11am and 4pm with a break for lunch between 12.30 and 1.30pm. There will be an additional charge of £1.50 per model to cover materials in addition to the entrance fee.
