On
the way to Ludlow is Stokesay Castle (English
Heritage), a fortified manor house and well worth a visit.
LUDLOW - awarded England's
first 'cittaslow' town. June and July is the annual Shakespearan
Festival held within the medieval castle ruins and followed
in September by the Food and drink Festival, Ludlow is famed
for its many excellent restaurants.
CHURCH STRETTON - lies
at the foot of the Longmynd Hills, amazing scenery over
vast areas of heathland. Located on the summit is the Glider
station.
ACTON SCOTT - a small
hamlet near Church Stretton is the setting for the BBC's
Victorian Farm.
Just over the border into Wales is Powis Castle.

Much
closer to New House is the only Wolf Sanctuary in England
- here you can observe wolves in natural surroundings. Between
Newcastle on Clun and the Anchor is the Nature Reserve of
Rhos Fiddle. This heath upland retains many native plant
species with curlews, merlins, and brown hares. Here too
is 'Moorhall', the workshops of the renowned Textile Artist
and Designer Bobby Britnell.
