with Linley Hall
More village lies to
the west of the Long Mynd, off the Shrewsbury to Bishops Castle
road.
The village comprises a
group of attractive, half-timbered houses and other buildings
centered around St Peter's Church.
The church itself is on a raised circular island enclosed by a
low stone wall.
Nearby Linley Hall is a fine house dating back to 1742, set in
rolling countryside with wonderful views in the valley of the
West Onny River.
In the park a group of larch trees, planted in the mid 18th
Century, are said to be the oldest larches in England. Rising up
Linley Hill to the east is Linley Beech Avenue, a long avenue of
ancient beech trees stretching up to the site of a former Roman
signal station.
