Much Wenlock is an attractive, historic market town amid beautiful Shropshire countryside. Dating back over 700 years, a trip to Much Wenlock is reminiscent of stepping back in time, as you stroll the twisting streets, past the quaint cottages and timbered buildings, browsing the speciality shops or stopping in the traditional pubs and good restaurants. The remains of the 12th century priory retain a real sense of the grandeur of the original building. The area around Much Wenlock offers excellent walking, riding and cycling, not least along the wonderful Wenlock Edge, a 15 mile ridge which rises over the town and offers glorious views. Visit Ironbridge, Ludlow, Stokesay Castle or Acton Scott Working Farm.
