THE TOWN OF CHURCH STRETTON

This small, historic market town in the heart of the Shropshire Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty sits below the heather clad hills of the Long Mynd, in a picturesque valley midway
between the county town of Shrewsbury and Ludlow.

This thriving community benefits from all types of societies, cafes, public houses and restaurants.
The area is often cited in the national news as one of the most beautiful places to visit-most
recently by ABTA as one of the 10 most beautiful places to visit globally. This pretty market town was built in the Edwardian era and boasts many independent and specialist local shops and artisans.
A unique shopping experience away from standard chain shopping. It is, however small enough to have maintained a village feel.There are churches, excellent schools and recreational facilities including 18-hole golf course, tennis, bowls and croquet.

The 'Mayfair' community centre and GP practice provide a range of health care. There are good rail and bus services. Telford lies within easy commuting distance where the M54 gives access to the West Midlands and Birmingham.
