This is the start of a nice 4 mile circular walk around the town of shifnal.
Shifnal was once an important staging post on the road from London to Holyhead. The town still boasts many good quality hotels, inns and pubs. Charles Dickens stayed here and featured some of the town's buildings in 'The Old Curiosity Shop'. Little Nell is buried in the graveyard of Tong Church closeby. Shifnal widened its grand main street in the 13th century after the town was granted a market charter. Nearby stands Boscobel House, the site of the Royal Oak where Charles II hid after the Battle of Worcester in 1651. Other attractions include the RAF Musuem at Cosford and Weston Park.
