Newtown Shropshire Map

About Newtown

Newtown breathes the quietude of Shropshire's rolling countryside. It lies 4.4 km north-west of Wem (from Wem: bearing 307°T, OS grid SJ 478 316), and is situated south-east of Northwood village. The land around Newtown is a gentle country, marked by hedgerows that seem to hold the secrets of passing seasons, and fields that lie open to a sky that often stretches in hues of oyster grey or pale, hopeful blue. Though small, Newtown possesses a certain grounded presence, a feeling that it has long been a point of quiet habitation. The lanes here, often bordered by ancient oaks, lead with a subtle invitation, their surfaces worn smooth by generations of footsteps and the occasional rumble of farm machinery.
