Church Stretton

Church Stretton lies in the Stretton Valley, with the Long Mynd rising to the west and Caer Caradoc Hill defining the eastern side. This small Shropshire market town sits within the Shropshire Hills National Landscape, where footpaths lead onto open heath, wooded slopes and high moorland. Carding Mill Valley, on the Long Mynd, is managed by the National Trust and is a familiar starting point for walks into the hills. St Laurence’s Church preserves a medieval presence at the centre of town, while Church Stretton developed as a Victorian health resort and acquired the nickname “Little Switzerland”.
