Shelvock Manor
Shelvock Manor is a house and grounds in a township of the same name near Shrewsbury, Shropshire, England. It was once a place of local importance, and was for more than two centuries the seat of the Thornes, a leading family in Shropshire. The first recorded spelling of Shelvock was Shelfhoc (1175), and later Sselvak & Schelfac (around the year 1270). The name is most likely derived from the Saxon "ac" meaning oak, prefixed by its location on a shelf or hill.
Montgomery Canal
The Montgomery Canal (or Montgomeryshire Canal), known colloquially as "The Monty", is a partially restored canal in Powys, in eastern Wales, and in northwest Shropshire, in western England. Originally planned to run from Llanymynech to Newtown via Welshpool, the canal is today considered to run 33 miles from the Llangollen Canal to Newtown.
River Perry, Shropshire
The River Perry is a river in Shropshire, England. It rises near Oswestry and flows south to meet the River Severn above Shrewsbury. The channel has been heavily engineered, both to enable water mills to be powered by it, and to improve the drainage of the surrounding land. The middle section crosses Baggy Moor, where major improvements were made in 1777 to drain the moor, and a section of the river bed was lowered in the 1980s, to continue the process.
West Felton
West Felton is a village and civil parish in Shropshire, England. At the 2001 census the parish, which also includes the settlements of Rednal, Grimpo and Haughton, had a population of 1,380. The village originally grew around a Norman castle, whose motte lies next to the church. It was recorded in the Domesday Book as Feltone, and as "Felton by le Knokyn" in 1303. The name Felton probably represents a combination of Old English feld, "open land", and tun, "settlement".
Knockin Castle
Knockin Castle was situated in the village of Knockin on Shropshire between Oswestry and Shrewsbury. This was a motte and bailey castle founded by Guy le Strange between 1154 and 1160 and it remained the principal holding of the Strange family for most of the Middle Ages. The castle was damaged in the First Barons' War during the reign of King John and then repaired by John le Strange. It was described as being 'ruinous' in 1540.
Rednal and West Felton railway station
Rednal & West Felton railway station was a minor station on the GWR’s Paddington to Birkenhead main line. Today this is part of the Shrewsbury to Chester line. The distinctive red brick station building (now a private house) can still be seen on the west side of the line.
Rednal rail crash
Rednal rail crash was a rail accident that occurred near Rednal station in Shropshire. On 7 June 1865 a permanent way (groundwork and rails) gang were lifting and packing the "up" line 600 yards north of Rednal station on a 1 in 132 gradient that falls from Whittington. A green flag had been set 1100 yards away at the top of the incline as a warning. At 12:29 an excursion train from Birkenhead left Chester for Shrewsbury consisting of 28 coaches and two brake vans and hauled by two locomotives.
Grimpo
Grimpo is a small hamlet in Shropshire, England. Its unusual name was formerly written Grimpool, and is possibly based on an Old English personal name. It developed as a settlement of squatter's cottages on the edge of unenclosed marshland. Grimpo is in the civil parish of West Felton, which lies a short distance to the west.
