TP3521 - Grinshill Cliff S3223

Grinshill Hill 192m P102 (630ft) [List Objective: English Humps] (DoBIH Hill ID: 5361) [JNSA 20353]

A very nice place for a short family walk

Great views from the toposcope and trig point.

A lovely little village with lots of character

There has been a mill on this site, beside the River Roden, since medieval times. The current building is Grade II listed and was converted to flats in the mid 2000s. It is said that a secret tunnel runs beneath Mill Street, connecting the building formerly known as The Moathouse to Roden House, the former rectory. There are blocked doorways in the cellars of both of these houses.

I often stop at the boat house café. Great lakeside view with loads of ducks, geese and swans, including feral ones. Great place to sit outside for a drink or meal, they even have an outdoor sofa.

Colemere is one of Shropshire's most beautiful meres. Almost entirely surrounded by woodland and grassland, it's a haven for wildlife - keep an eye out for wildfowl and wading birds, wildflowers including a number of different species of orchid.

S/he looks happy enough lol

Such beautiful surroundings

Lots to see along here

New owners, good outdoor café bar, wouldn't sell me a duck though.

Nicely situated sadly not cyclists friendly place

Rising to 629 feet (192 m), Grinshill Hill sits immediately north of Grinshill village. Formed of Triassic sandstone, considerable quarrying has taken place here and many buildings have been constructed out of it. In fact, the door surround at Number 10 Downing Street is made from Grinshill sandstone. For walkers, the viewpoint on the hill offers fantastic views of the low-lying north Shropshire countryside and is well worth the hike up.

This gorgeous woodland sits on the side of a sandstone ridge and is a mixture of broad-leaf and conifer trees. While heavily wooded, there are several viewpoints that offer fantastic views of the flatter, patchwork landscape to the south. Significant quarrying took place here and many buildings in the surroundings were built out of Grinshill sandstone. Today, this site is protected and is a thriving habitat for wildlife and flora.

The meres and mosses of northern Shropshire are rather unique places and Ellesmere's is the largest of the lot. The lake lies alongside the historic town and is surrounded by lovely parkland and gardens, particularly popular in the warmer months. Home to thriving wildlife, the Mere is a fascinating place, left by receding glaciers eons ago. Dawn and dusk, winter or summer, this lake has many personalities and all are stunning. In the summertime, you can hire rowing boats and mess about on the water.

Great destination for a ride. Good coffee, good service and brilliant flap jack.

Great cafe / restaurant right next to a big lake full of swans and ducks. Outdoor seating and cosy indoors and clean loos.
