The present Church of St Nicholas is of Norman origin but was lengthened in the 14th century. The Perpendicular style tower was added around 1460 by the Earl of Warwick but he didn't get round to finish the job and top it off with a spire. Being an Earl must be a tad busy I guess!

All Saints Church stands on an elevated site in the village of Forton, near Newport with views of the Aqualate estate. The original church was built at Forton in 1199 though the Saxon font in the Church tower indicates it was a site of worship before this date. The yew tree to the left of the path is 1300 years old. The church has undergone several major changes but the east and north wall of the chancel survive and the round head slit window on the chancel north wall confirms the church has a 12th Century foundation. In 1729 five new bells were given to the church. The most prominent monument is the alabaster tomb of Thomas Skrymsher (died 1633), knight of Aqualate and his family.

Forton Hall is a stone gable house of Jacobean appearance but is dated 1665.

The Shrewsbury and Newport Canals were two different waterways, opened in the late 18th and mid-19th centuries, which both became part of the Shropshire Union in the 1840s. After a railway was opened, which ran parallel to the canal, trade began to decline and the canal was closed in stages during the 20th century. Today it is a peaceful place for recreation, both on and alongside the water.

really cosy place for short ride or walk
