スティパーストーンズ国立自然保護区でののおすすめツーリングルート

Good Lamb with mint sauce and Guinness

Tea, cakes, crafts and lots of history - What's not to like😎

Easy enough way up onto the ridge

Worth a visit this time of year as it’s nice and warm with good beer, coffee & food open every lunch time 🥲

Stiperstones village is in the heart of the sprawling Shropshire Hills AONB. This is a quaint attractive standalone village with few amenities but is in a gloriously hilly setting.

Snailbeach mine is a disused narrow gauge railway line that used to serve the local lead mine. It ran for 82 years, with traffic on the railway continuing until 1959. The mine has some old sidings still in place and the old locomotive shed is still there.

Parking and public toilet. Toilets open between 9 and 5pm daily. Parking payment is via honesty box (suggested £2 - Oct 2023).

The Snailbeach Mines were once the biggest and richest lead mines in the country! Here you can find the remains of the mine, spanned over a number of different buildings. There are guided tours available if you wanted to explore the mines further and learn about their history.
