The town is the home of the Shrewsbury Quest where you can follow a trail of clues to solve one of Brother Cadfael's 12th century mysteries. Nearby is the imposing Abbey where the stories were set.

Ludlow, a medieval market town to the south, is dominated by the ruins of its castle, but you will have to search for its impressive church which seem to hide once you are in the town.

Add a good market and a collection of antique shops and you've got a recipe for a great day out. Use the car if you must or catch the train from Church Stretton.

As you drive along the A4371, stop at the car park on the Wenlock Edge. Admire the view, and then take a walk along this wooded escarpment, looking out for fossils as you go. Now owned by the National Trust, the paths are well maintained. Leave time for tea and a browse around Much Wenlock, with Priory, pottery and quaint streets.

Stokesay Castlea short train ride southwards from Church Stretton, is a wonderful example of an ancient manor house. Now under the management of English Heritage it is open to the public all year round.

For the energetic it is possible to walk back to Hope Bowdler, making a really good day without using the car. The faint hearted could catch the train back.
