On the walk to Clun, ‘the quietest place under the sun’. Or so A.E. Housman thought in his poem, ‘A Shropshire Lad’. Perhaps not on Saturday 8 September 2007, with walkers a plenty and firemen washing vehicles.
The imposing black and white village hall - the gift in 1925 of local landowner Mrs Harriet Greene from the Grove Estate
The first track (looking south-west) heading towards the ruined Upper Barn
Looking west along Ridgway Hill. Plowden Woods to the right
Skirting Stoke Wood and looking south to Burrow Hill and its hidden hill fort
Heading down towards the village of Kempton
A woodland path on Clunton Hill
Heading towards Clunton and Sowdley Wood beyond
Approaching Clun from the south
