Shakeford Shropshire Map

About Shakeford

Shakeford, a quiet corner of Shropshire, breathes the gentle air of the West Midlands. It lies 5.8 km south of Market Drayton (from Market Drayton: bearing 177°T, OS grid SJ 677 284), and is situated east-south-east of Wistanswick village. The lanes here, often shaded by ancient hedgerows, carry the scent of damp earth and wild roses, a subtle perfume that clings to the very stones of the modest dwellings. Fields, stitched with the patient colours of arable crops, stretch out under skies that can shift from a pale, watery blue to a brooding grey with startling speed, mirroring the changing moods of the land. The quietude of Shakeford suggests a place where time moves with the steady, unhurried pulse of the agricultural seasons, a place content in its own modest being.
