Upper Astley Shropshire Map

About Upper Astley

Upper Astley breathes the quiet dignity of the Shropshire countryside. It lies 6.9 km north-east of Shrewsbury (from Shrewsbury: bearing 35°T, OS grid SJ 531 181), and is situated south-south-east of Astley village. The land here rolls gently, a verdant canvas under skies that often hold a soft, diffused light, lending a subtle glow to the surrounding fields. Ancient hedgerows, thick with hawthorn and bramble, trace the boundaries of pastures where sheep graze contentedly, their woolly forms like scattered clouds against the green. Though small, Upper Astley possesses a timeless quality, its few dwellings hinting at a history unhurried by the demands of the modern world, each stone and timber a quiet testament to generations past.
