Book club is also a great way to meet some.Dog walks down the adjacent lane to some very special views make it worthwhile. And, also, the Army camp offers some great walks through forestry and fields. Dogs welcome, most of the local dog walkers use a local lane/public footpath to the back of the camp where you will find abandoned army trucks and storage facilities from the 2 nd World War.Nesscliffe Hill and the story of Humphrey Kynaston (shropshires Robin Hood) who lived in a cave keeps the younger generation entertained.Nescliffe Garage has the cheapest fuel in the area if not the country most of the time, a family-run business with locals in mind, who also supply all the necessities for the household.For eating out we are spoilt between the Three Pigeons, Royal Hill and Cross Keys, they all also employ locals, and our kids have worked for them whilst in college.Nescliffe Young Farmers Club, inclusive to all not just the farmers, great way to meet local children and young adults ages 10-26.Frequent buses between Oswestry and Shrewsbury.Corbet School pick up and collection from the entrance to the property.Viewings by appointment.
