Minsterley Bridge
 
Calendar
 
 
Following nearly thirty years of deliberations and planning, at last the work on Minsterley Bridge is scheduled to begin in February 2010 and hopefully will finish in August 2010.

It is going to be a considerable upheavel to travellers in spite of the diversions. The floral display in the Square has disappeared and a new display won't appear until next Autumn.

 
The Calendar shows Parish Council dates of interest, and local events that we would like to inform you about.

SHROPSHIRE HILLS SHUTTLES
 
 
 
OPERATES BETWEEN 3 APRIL - 26 SEPTEMBER 2010

Visually, these two 'hills' are very different - the Long Mynd is a large and long plateau, while the rugged outline of the Stiperstones ridge is unmistakable.

Sit back and enjoy the journey through Housman's land of easy livers and quietest places under the sun.
Between Craven Arms, Clun and Bishop's Castle you'll discover castles, hillforts, ancient woods, rivers, crafts and markets, all washed down with local water or real ales.

If you like just a stroll or a more challenging walk, The Secret Hills Shuttle route can drop you off and pick you up along the Shropshire Way with Offa's Dyke National Trail close by.

Long Mynd & Stiperstones Shuttle run every weekend and Bank Holiday Monday.
