Whittington, a modest Shropshire village, wears its modest charm with a quiet dignity. It lies 3.6 km east-north-east of Croesoswallt (from Croesoswallt: bearing 70°T, OS grid SJ 324 309), and is situated north-west of Babbinswood village. The village green, a broad sweep of resilient turf, catches the late afternoon sun, its gentle slope a familiar stage for local gatherings and the casual passing of neighbours. Ancient oaks stand sentinel around its perimeter, their leaves whispering tales of seasons past, a constant, grounding presence against the changing skies. The air here often carries a faint, earthy scent, a reminder of the surrounding agricultural lands that have shaped Whittington's character for generations. Its modest church, St. Giles', with its sturdy stone walls, speaks of enduring faith and community, a quiet anchor in the landscape.
