Clun Shropshire Map

About Clun

Clun rests in a quiet corner of Shropshire, where the land begins to fold and dip. It lies 8.2 km south-south-west of Bishop's Castle (from Bishop's Castle: bearing 194°T, OS grid SO 302 808), and is situated west of Clunton village. The River Clun, a ribbon of clear water, carves a gentle path through the valley, its banks often softened by the persistent green of willow and alder. Above the village, the gaunt remains of Clun Castle stand sentinel, a powerful echo of a more turbulent past, its weathered stone catching the late afternoon sun in hues of ochre and grey. The air here carries the scent of damp earth and distant sheep, a subtle perfume of the surrounding countryside. Clun's market square, though modest, still hums with the quiet energy of its weekly market, a tradition that has long sustained the lifeblood of this place.
