Winter View of the Shropshire Hills - Shropshire

Blue Remembered Hills

How I wish I lived somewhere where there were hills and streams and woodland on my doorstep. Alas I don't .. but I am within fairly easy reach of the Stretton Hills and I try to go there as often as possible. I don't drive, I rely on public transport .. a bus from my home town of Newport to Telford railway station, a train to Shrewsbury and another train to Church Stretton from where I can commence a day walking in the hills.

Nice Pictures. We enjoyed our recent trip to Shropshire - and glad it wasn't during the winter!

Your photography is smashing - especially that owl on your home page!

I wish to visit Market Drayton soon, as it holds some family significance. Lovely photos of Shropshire, thanks for posting them. Cheers!

Great photos of the Shropshire area! My wife is originally from nearby Cheshire so I think that it is high time that I took in some of this scenery!
