  • Malamarhomes ARLESTON MANOR WELLINGTON
    WELLINGTON SHROPSHIRE malamarhomes ARLESTON MANOR WELLINGTON Arleston Manor Mews and Arleston Manor Drive is an historic, gated development of just fourteen three to six bedroom homes. Situated in the former grounds of Arleston Manor, a Grade II listed timber framed house of the late 16th century, you will be able to savour the unique character of this special location. According to local tradition, Arleston Manor was built as a hunting lodge for James I, though others say it was built by the Foresters for the same purpose. Apparently, Henry II also made it his abode on his hunting expeditions to the Wrekin Forest. The Forester family have been hereditary custodians of the portion of the Wrekin Forest known as Wellington Hay since the 12th century, and their name itself is derived from their profession. Today, however, you have the chance to live in this historic environment whilst benefiting from Malamar Homes’ customary exacting specification for modern living.

  • Oswestry Group Programme & Newsletter
    Oswestry Group Programme & Newsletter November 2017 to February 2018 page 1 page 2 Chairman’s Chat As many of you will know I am coming to the end of my term as your Chairperson after four years, so we are looking for someone to come forward and volunteer to be our next chairperson. I would like to thank three groups of people who have helped to make my job pleasant and enjoyable. To all members of Oswestry Ramblers for their support and encouragement, to all the walk leaders for their time and effort in giving us such a varied and interesting programme and to the members of the committee, past and present, for their support and work during my four years, so THANK YOU TO YOU ALL. The AGM is set for Tuesday 28 November, 7.15pm, at Whittington Cricket Club. Please come and see if we can have more members there than ever. The new walks programme is out and if there are any dates vacant, apart from those over Christmas, that will be due to the programme co-ordinators having less walks offered as our pool of walk leaders is diminished. We need members to see if they have a favourite walk they would like to offer to lead for the next programme. Thank you all once again and have good walking. Colin Chandler, Chair of Oswestry Ramblers Area News This will be replaced with a regular half-yearly newsletter. Dates for Your Diary • 28TH NOVEMBER 2017 GROUP AGM 7 pm for 7.15 pm at the Whittington Cricket Club.

  • SFHS Publications Catalogue
    Shropshire Family History Society Publications Catalogue – Maps Spring 2019 We stock maps from two publishers, Cassini and Alan Godfrey. Alan Godfrey These maps fall into two categories. The majority are taken from highly detailed 25" maps and are scale reduced to approximately 15" to the mile. Almost all include notes on the history of the area by leading historians with details of principal residents and trades. The second category, which are the one inch to the mile scale, cover a wider area but with of course, far less detail. However, they give an overall picture of a district and include villages for which a large-scale map could not be justified.
