Not t far from Ludlow on the A4117 going East is The Clee Hill. The views from the top are amazing!!
To get to the Clee hill there is a left turn which is a bit hidden you need to watch out for at Angel bank. If you get to the village of Clee hill you have gone too far.

About 25 miles north of us is Ellesmere. North Shropshire by contrast to South Shropshire is quite flat. Ellesmere is a great day out . We particularly like Colemere only a couple of miles from Ellesmere.
