About Old Woods

Old Woods holds the quiet, stubborn character of the Shropshire plain, where the horizon broadens under a sky that feels vast and indifferent to the passing of human years. It lies 5.3 miles north-north-west of Shrewsbury (from Shrewsbury: bearing 335°T, OS grid SJ 456 203), and is situated east-north-east of Walford Heath village. Low-lying fields stretch out from the cluster of houses, their heavy clay soil retaining the memory of winter rains long into the spring. To the west, the reed-fringed waters of Walford Pool draw a silver line against the dark hedges, reflecting the shifting moods of the clouds. The nearby Moated Site 480M East Of Yeaton Peverey Farm leaves a faint, earthen signature of medieval life upon the landscape, barely perceptible beneath the modern growth of hawthorn and ash. Old Woods remains defined by this agricultural silence, where the only urgency is the seasonal turn of the plough or the sudden, sharp call of a bird crossing the meadows. The light here has a pale, watery quality, often lingering on the weathered brickwork of the older cottages with a touch of melancholy.
