I'm not entirely sure what the half way house is half way between. Presumably the Wrekin Summit and somewhere. It didn't however feel half way up the trail I walked. It is however a great place to stop for a break, maybe get an ice cream and sit outside in the sun looking out over fantastic views.

I am half way to thinking that this half way house is half way to nowhere but it actually maybe half way up the hill. On the other hand it may be half way down? Anyway I am not sure because I am half stupid!
