Church Stretton is a beautiful market town set in the heart of the Shropshire Hills Area of Outstanding beauty. It sits surrounded by hills in a spectacular setting and is the ideal base from which to explore the surrounding area. Be it walking, hiking or biking, Church Stretton has something for everyone. Don't forget to check out the The Long Mynd and The Burway.

There have been several churches built on this site. The church was first founded in around 1155 but fell into disrepair and the present building was built in 1856. Not the oldest of churches by any means but still a very nice modest replacement for the godly flock of Uffington.

Shrewsbury weir was constructed in 1909. Its function is to keep the water level around the loop of the River Severn that encloses the town centre at a nominal height for pleasure boating and the rowers at Shrewsbury School. It also makes an attractive feature for those out on foot alongside the river. The Weir Cafe, just next to the weir, is open daily.

Number 39 of Simon Warren's original top 100 climbs, The Burway is a must do in the Shropshire Hills. Nearly 2 miles long and avg 9%, you better have a good breakfast before taking this one on! But don' let the stats get you down, it's a stunning road with amazing panoramic views.

Shropshire's lost waterways were once a hub of industry, transporting coal from Telford to Shrewsbury in the 18th century, and iron ore and limestone during the 19th century. Several feats of engineering grace the now peaceful canals, including the Trench Incline, which raised boats by some 75ft and continued working until 1921; Longdon-on-Tern Aqueduct; Berwick Tunnel - the first tunnel of a significant length which had a towpath through it - and eleven guillotine-gated locks, two of which can still be seen at Hadley Park, Telford. Today, the fine gravel of the towpaths, leisure and liveaboard boats and abundance of wildlife offers a perfect playground for cyclists, walkers and runners.
