Much Wenlock is a charming little market town steeped in history and natural beauty located in Shropshire.
Perhaps the most fascinating thing to know about Much Wenlock, is it is the birthplace of the modern Olympic Games, having hosted the Wenlock Olympian Games here in the 19th century. There are so many other wonderful things to know about Much Wenlock and lots to see, including visiting the old Priary, catching up on local history at the Much Wenlock Museum, or visiting the beautiful historic church.

George and Dragon (photo added) is the Good Beer Guide Pub in town (although I had a very dodgy pint). Old School charm and worth seeking out.
