Close to the historic border town of Oswestry lies the peaceful rural hamlet of Hengoed.

This beautiful part of the country is steeped in history – close to Hengoed is the original Old Oswestry, the site of a spectacular Iron Age Hill Fort, whilst Ellesmere is home to the lovely Church of Saint Mary, with its fifteenth century roof. The town also boasts a variety of shops, good pubs and restaurants and an abundance of entertainment on and around the nine lakes – leading to the area’s name of ‘Shropshire's Lakeland’.
