Tips

December 28, 2022

Hiking

Said to resemble the shape of a sleeping dragon, the twin peaks of Earl's Hill and Pontesbury Hill have their firey origin in a volcano some 650 million years ago. Glorious views from the summit - an Iron Age hillfort - stretch out to Wales and across the Shropshire Hills.

It’s a steep ole climb up to Earl’s Hill, but the views are well worth it
