Wenlock Edge

Wenlock Edge was formed 425 million years ago as a coral reef in a shallow sea. The thickly wooded limestone escarpment stretches in an unbroken line for 18 miles (30 km) between Ironbridge and Craven Arms in Shropshire.

Shropshire Way

The Shropshire Way is a 139 mile long, varied route crossing lowland farmland and many of the notable hills of Shropshire. It passes through Shrewsbury, Clun and Ludlow (the most southerly point), and on the return takes in the Clee Hills, Wenlock Edge, Ironbridge and the Wrekin. The path is waymarked by a buzzard on a named disc.
