Description

Long Mynd

Could this Long Mynd be the most dramatic and challenging part of the Shropshire Hills? The heath and moorland plateau is a must-visit if walking, riding and areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty are your things. Much of the area is owned and managed by the National Trust and it is crisscrossed with ancient trails where the Roman roads took advantage of the pre-existing Watling Street.
