Hill View Meadow, Minsterley, Shropshire

Land size
5 acres

Description

Hill View Meadow is a large open and sunny meadow. For those looking for a project, it could be ideal as a future paddock or for a planting project, however it can also just to be enjoyed as it is.

Situated in the National Landscape area of the Shropshire Hills, it is easily accessed along a recently refurbished track. There is a large parking space at the lower end of the meadow, from where all areas of the meadow can be accessed.

Numerous insects and butterflies can be found on the many wildflowers, and there is abundant birdlife including Curlews and Kites.

The views from the meadows are expansive. This well drained meadow, with it's wide views across to Cordon Hill, Mucklewick Hill and The Rowls, has a lot of potential for planting. It would be perfect for broadleaf with a mix of more commercial trees too. We would be happy to chat about what is possible here. The meadow could become a diverse natural woodland with private areas for family enjoyment - there is a lot of scope to create here.

In 2023 the Shropshire Council Community Trees Scheme offered grants to people who wished to plant trees and short sections of hedging, and to create small areas of woodland in Shropshire. They may offer the same again in 2024. Grants are available through the the UK government for planting trees as well as stewardship grants.
