Barns At Brockton, Brockton, Lydbury North, Shropshire, SY7

Brockton is a delightful rural village situated approximately 3 miles south east of the town of Bishops Castle, with some truly outstanding views of the surrounding South Shropshire Hills. The pretty South Shropshire village of Lydbury North thrives with its own primary school, church, village hall, public house, and community supported village shop. Bishops Castle itself is situated approximately 25 miles south west from Shropshire’s county town of Shrewsbury, and approximately 20 miles from Ludlow. Shropshire lies between the Welsh border and the West Midlands, and is equally well placed for visits to the Welsh coast or Birmingham and beyond. Bishops Castle is an ancient town, which dates back to 792 AD and is situated in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, but unfortunately the castle from which it derives its name is no longer in existence. Bishops Castle is a lively market town, and has many facilities including a primary and secondary school, leisure centre, small cottage hospital, dentist, doctors, restaurants, public houses (two of which brew their own beer) and, individual shops and businesses. There is a good bus link to Shrewsbury every day, with local rail links at Broome, and Craven Arms.
