Stiperstones

Today we set off from Shrewsbury through the rugged Hope Valley heading out to Churchstoke. Kellyn, Ceienna, Muzzy and myself visited their Country Park were we looked at the animals Kellyn was fascinated with the ducks in the pond which will become our theme for the week Ponds. There was lots of pigs there some had babies. After our walk i fueled the car up and we headed back through the Hope Valley to the Stiperstones, I place of lots of folk tales and the home of the Devils Chair. We stopped at the Bog Mines to take in the views and then headed to the Snailbeach Lead Mines.








We had a great time exploring the Shropshire Hills and in Glorious Sunshine too.
