TRAVEL THE WORLD - NEAR SHREWSBURY, U.K.


This view of the English countryside, taken in 1994, shows one reason why Shropshire became my favourite destination for a day trip from Birmingham. How inviting this landscape is for the person who loves to walk! The photo was taken from Stiperstones. This name has been given to both the village and the adjacent nature reserve. The name, like so many in England, is interesting, and makes one curious about its derivation.
