The garden around the Abbey Pulpit was thus exposed to the rear, and the dilapidated nature of its boundary fence left it vulnerable. In 1994 the pulpit was damaged by vandals, and in response Shrewsbury and Atcham Borough Council, the site owners, decided to renew the boundary wall and fence around the pulpit enclosure and tidy the garden within. The Abbey Pulpit lies within the scheduled area of Shrewsbury Abbey (Scheduled Monument No.: Shropshire 359). Scheduled monument consent for these works was granted in April 1995, with the provision that they should be accompanied by an agreed programme of archaeological investigation. In the light of a number of recent investigations in the immediate vicinity (Carver, 1975 and 1985; Hannaford, 1991; Watson, 1992), archaeological deposits were known to exist at a depth of 0.7m below ground level on the Abbey Foregate street frontage, extending to a depth of at least 1.8m at the rear of the pulpit enclosure.

Albrighton Station
STATIONS AS PLACES Opportunity Prospectus Integration, Community and Delivery: a Masterplan for Albrighton Station ALBRIGHTON STATION APRIL 2020 FOREWORD Introducing the concept of Stations as Places The Stations as Places programme aims to promote local railway stations as community ‘hubs’ rather than simply access points onto the rail network. The vision is to develop local railway stations as an asset highly valued within the community, contributing to economic growth and acting as a hub for creativity, heritage and social amenity. The Vision “We will develop stations as quality gateways between communities and the railway, supporting the changing needs of our passengers, residents and visitors. Stations in the West Midlands will be community assets, supporting the wellbeing and development of the areas they serve through involving local community and business.” West Midlands Station Alliance (WMSA) Mission Statement What does the prospectus do for Albrighton Station? There is an important role for the railways to play in both the economic and social regeneration of the local areas which our stations serve. This Opportunity Prospectus sets out the economic, social and geographic landscape of the area around our station and highlights some of the opportunities for commercial development, partnership working, inward investment and community regeneration. We have included a profile of Albrighton station in this document and looked at different types of activity neighbouring the station, from local businesses providing facilities to the

A Watching Brief at Abbey Foregate, Shrewsbury, Shropshire
A Watching Brief at Abbey Foregate, Shrewsbury, Shropshire by H R Hannaford Archaeology Service Archaeology Service Report Number 164 © Shropshire County Council July 1999 A WATCHING BRIEF AT ABBEY FOREGATE, SHREWSBURY, SHROPSHIRE by H R HANNAFORD A Report for SHREWSBURY AND ATCHAM BOROUGH COUNCIL Archaeology Service Winston Churchill Building, Radbrook Centre, Radbrook Road,Shrewsbury, SY3 9BJ Tel: (01743) 254018 Fax: (01743) 254047 TELFORD & WREKIN COUNCIL A Watching Brief at Abbey Foregate, Shrewsbury, Shropshire 1 INTRODUCTION In 1999, new security measures were installed in the temporary car park off Abbey Foregate, Shrewsbury, Shropshire. Part of the area affected by these works lay within the scheduled area of Shrewsbury Abbey (Scheduled Monument No.: Shropshire 359), and scheduled monument consent had been obtained for the works. In the light of a number of recent investigations in the immediate vicinity (Carver, 1975 and 1985; Hannaford, 1991, 1995, and 1996; Watson, 1992), archaeological deposits were known to exist at a depth of 0.7m below ground level on the Abbey Foregate street frontage, extending to a depth of at least 1.8m in the car park at the rear of the pulpit enclosure. It was considered that an appropriate level of archaeological provision would be for the works to be monitored and carried out under archaeological supervision. The Archaeology Service, Shropshire County Council, was commissioned by the site owners, Shrewsbury and Atcham Borough Council, to undertake the archaeological monitoring of the works, which were carried out in April and May 1999. 2 HISTORY OF THE SITE The area to the south of Abbey Foregate opposite Shrewsbury Abbey in the medieval period lay within the precinct of the Benedictine monastery; the ground to the south, between the monastic precinct and the Rea Brook, was occupied by a large fishpond.

After almost six months fairly intensive research, I know more, but realize I have only begun to discover the history and stories of the area. Most people assured me there was very little history in the village – Caratacus’ last stand was very unlikely. Offa’s Dyke was now invisible. The canals, the quarry, and the railways were now defunct. But instead of very little history I found evidence of a long and fascinating past, in this region of mineral wealth on the border between the mountains and the plains. Perhaps every village in the country has a fertile history, once you begin to look for it. And perhaps some places have one ABOVE: Looking north towards event, a battle, or a building, that has Llanymynech Llanymynech Hill. great significance.

A Geological Guide to Titterstone Clee and Clee Hill
Shropshire Geological Society Special Publication Geological Trail for Titterstone Clee and Clee Hill By Michael Rosenbaum and Brian Wilkinson A guide for the geological visitor prepared on behalf of the Shropshire Geological Society RIGS Group sponsored by the Aggregate Levy Sustainability Fund 2005 Published by The Shropshire Geological Society Shropshire Geological Society Special Publication © 2005 Geological Trail for Titterstone Clee and Clee Hill1 By Michael Rosenbaum and Brian Wilkinson The Geological Trail of Titterstone Clee and Clee Hill is designed as a guide to lead the geological visitor through the evidence in the ground, tracing over one hundred million years of Earth history from the end of the Silurian when life was just beginning to become established on land, 419 Ma (Ma = million years ago), through the Devonian to the later stages of the Carboniferous, 300 Ma. The Trail also reveals evidence on the ground of the effects of the Quaternary Ice Age, particularly the Devensian Stage which saw the last great advance of the glacial ice across northern and western Britain from 120,000 to just 11,000 years before present. Titterstone Clee and Clee Hill are part of an outlier of Carboniferous sedimentary rocks, in some places resting unconformably (at an angle) on older Devonian and Silurian sedimentary rocks and elsewhere faulted against them. The outlier is some 13 km long and 3 km wide and has a synclinal (down-folded) structure trending northeast-southwest (Figure 1). The Devonian and Silurian rocks had been affected by earlier folding, largely as a result of being draped over crustal blocks beneath.
