Places of interest:
Bishop’s Castle
Bishop’s Castle is 1.5 miles (2.4 km) east of the Wales-England border. The town is within an agricultural area and has also become known for its alternative community including artists, musicians, writers and craftspeople. The long distance footpath, the Shropshire Way, runs through the town and Offa’s Dyke is only a few miles to the west.
Wentnor
Wentnor is set on a ridge with views in every direction. The village is compact and attractive, most of the houses and farms built of brick and local stone. The church at the south end of the ridge was rebuilt in the 19th Century, but still retains some of its original Norman features. The Crown Inn, a 16th Century building, still caters for weary travellers.
