Brow Farm Campsite

Scientifically minded sorts can get their rocks off at Wenlock Edge (a 35-minute drive), a limestone escarpment and a Site of Special Scientific Interest for geologists. History’s to be had at Acton Scott’s working farm (25 minutes) where visitors can dress up in period clothing and see what life was like for rural residents way back when. Way back when goes even further into days of yore on a trip to medieval Stokesay Castle, 30 minutes away, and times feel positively ancient while roaming the remains of municipal baths and walls at Wroxeter Roman City (35 minutes). For towning around a newer settlement, Shrewsbury’s 40 minutes' drive away and is the birthplace of Charles Darwin; the evolution expert has a trail named after him that visitors can set off on. To investigate the famed Industrial Revolution instead, Ironbridge is 50 minutes away for the Blists Hill Victorian Town museum focusing on the ‘sights, sounds and smells’ of this era.
