Humphrey Kynaston Way –Long Distance &Circular Routes Explore the finest of Shropshire’s 'Wild’ Humphrey Kynaston countryside the Robin Hood of Shropshire Humphrey Kynaston Way Long Distance & Circular Routes Route 1 Humphrey Kynaston, a notorious highwayman known as ‘Wild’ Humphrey, was Cardingmill Valley to Picklescott descended from a Welsh Prince. He was born around 1468, to Lady Elizabeth Grey, the 5.3 miles / 8.5 km granddaughter of Humphrey Plantagenet, Duke of Gloucester, and second wife of Sir Roger Kynaston, Constable Keeper of Myddle Castle. Humphrey became Constable on Route 2 his father’s death, but, through his dissolute and riotous manner of life, he fell into Picklescott to Church Pulverbatch 2.6 miles / 4.2 km debt, and Myddle castle fell into ruin. His horse, reputed to have been called Beelzebub, the devil’s horse, was said to have been shod backwards to confuse Route 3 pursuers. Humphrey, following a skirmish in Oswestry, along with his half brother Church Pulverbatch to Pontesbury Thomas, and Oliver and Richard Kynaston, was accused of felony in December 1487, 3.2 miles / 5.1 km and he became a notorious outlaw. These were unsettled times, with the Wars of the Route 4 Roses still ongoing, and the Welsh Marshes a lawless no man’s land. Pontesbury to Ford 6.3 miles / 10.1 km In December 1492 Humphrey, now of Nesscliffe, rode to Stretton Dale, (Church Route 5 Stretton) with his half-brother Thomas Kynaston of Shrawardine, and Robert Hopton Ford to Montford Bridge of Hopton, Nesscliffe. There, they killed John Heughes. Many aided and abetted them, 2.4 miles / 3.9 km and in their escape they were lodged and fed at Pontesbury, Shrewsbury and Nesscliffe. They were tried and convicted for felony and murder in 1493, but escaped Route 6 capture. The under Sheriff tried to capture Humphrey by removing some of the planks Montford Bridge to Nesscliffe from the stone pillars of Montford Bridge, but he spurred his horse, and leaped the 8.8 miles / 14.1 km gap, escaping to Nesscliffe where he, with his horse stabled alongside, is reputed to Route 7 have lived in the cave there reached by climbing 24 steps cut into the rock face. They Nesscliffe to Merrington Green were given food and fodder by those around: it is said ‘by the rich through fear, and 9.7 miles / 15.6 km the poor through gratitude’. Route 8 Merrington Green to Grinshill Later pardoned by Henry VIII, legend has it that he died in the cave at Nesscliffe. His 7.3 miles / 11.8 km will of 1534 requested that he be buried in St Mary’s Church, Welshpool.

  • At This Election We Risk Losing So Much of What We Value in Our Society
    At this election we risk losing so much of what we value in our society. The Green Party will stand up for what matters. A properly funded NHS, free from the threat of the profit motive. Good schools for all our children, so they can make the most of their potential without being selected by ability or restricted by a narrow regime of testing Young people should have the opportunities that my generation had – a free university education and the freedom to live, work and study abroad We welcome EU citizens and want them to stay; not have their family life and work prospects threatened. We'll give the public a vote on the terms of the Brexit deal. Protection for the environment and urgent action on climate change. The UK's commitment to the Paris climate change agreement is meaningless without action. Instead of undermining renewable energy technology and its potential to create jobs, the Green Party will invest in them. We won't subsidise fossil fuels or the white elephant that is Hinkley nuclear power station. We'll invest in public transport, walking and cycling, and scrap the major roads programme. Green Party membership and votes are growing locally and across the country. Shrewsbury has just elected its first Green member of Shropshire Council and the town council. If elected I'd support farmers and small businesses against the harmful effects of a hard Brexit; campaign against the damaging and wasteful North West Relief Road; and work to keep local public services strong and properly funded. I've lived in Shrewsbury since 2000 and my two children went to Meole Brace School and Shrewsbury Sixth Form College.
