English Frankton rests in the gentle embrace of Shropshire's countryside, a quiet corner of the West Midlands. It lies 6.1 km west of Wem (from Wem: bearing 278°T, OS grid SJ 453 297), and is situated east-north-east of Cockshutt village. The land here rolls with a subtle, almost whispered grace, each rise and fall painted by the shifting moods of the sky, where sunlight can fall in broad, benevolent swathes or be broken into a thousand glinting fragments by the leaves of ancient oaks. English Frankton itself is a scattering of dwellings, their brickwork softened by time and the persistent breath of the west wind. A sense of quiet continuity pervades, as if the very air remembers the passage of generations, and the fields, stretching out in varying shades of green and gold, hold their peace with a stoic patience.
