The Wrekin | Solo Walk | Exploring Shropshire

Walk with me up The Wrekin, a hill in Shropshire. Rising to a height of 407 metres The Wrekin is a prominent and well-known landmark. If you've been to the Midlands and ever heard the phrase ‘going round the Wrekin’ the phrase may finally make sense. There is an Iron Age hill fort on the summit. It is thought the fort was built by a Celtic tribe and was once their capital and then later on Roman invaders stormed the fort and set fire to it. A more recent addition is the Wrekin transmitting station, used for broadcasting and telecommunications. At the top of the main mast is a beacon which emits a red pulse of light every few seconds at night. I picked a lovely day for it, hopefully my adventures will inspire you to get out and about too. Particularly for the Moms out there like me, who enjoy a bit of me time in nature. Comment if there's anywhere you think I should visit. I would love to find some new places to explore.
