Standing in the privacy of Apley Estate’s glorious rolling parkland with an outlook over the River Severn, the mansion is approached down a long scenic driveway, affording the house an idyllic and peaceful setting. Whilst rural, the house is close to the village of Norton and has easy access to the pretty market town of Bridgnorth (7 miles) for day-to-day amenities. Bridgnorth is famed for the oldest and steepest inland funicular railway which has been operating since 1892 and links the high and low towns. Telford and access to the M54, is 11 miles away and provides onwards travel to the Midlands business centres and the wider road network. Regional Airports include Birmingham, Manchester and East Midlands. Architecture Apley Park was built by John Webb for Thomas Whitmore in 1811. Webb was a successful landscape gardener who turned to architecture late in life and the mansion was designed to match the grandeur of its setting. Built primarily of Grinshill ashlar in a Gothic style, with the exterior featuring battlemented parapets and mullioned windows. The earliest part of the house, a six bay three storey north wing, was incorporated into the Gothic mansion. Apley is detailed at length by Professor Pevsner’s Buildings of England stating that Webb took his cue from Ashridge, Hertfordshire, Sheffield Park, Sussex and Sandleford Priory, Berkshire. hiStory Apley Hall has a wealth of history. A home has existed on the site as early as the 13th century. In 1551 Sir Thomas Lucy (Shakespeare’s magistrate) sold the Apley Estate to the royalist Whitmore family with close links to Charles I. Indeed it is reported that Charles I said of Bridgnorth, “The finest view in all my Kingdom”. Apley Hall was commissioned by Thomas Whitmore in 1811 just after the Napoleonic Wars and was designed to emulate a romantic castle overlooking the River Severn. In 1867 the Hall was sold to the heir and nephew of James Foster, a wealthy ironmaster who employed 7000 men making nails in Stourbridge. In 1896 the parents of P.G. Wodehouse moved from Surrey to Shropshire and became regular visitors at Apley Hall and it is believed to be the inspiration behind P.G. Wodehouse’s famous novel, Blandings Castle, and locals surmise that the low walled enclosure at the western end of the stable courtyards at Apley was the fictional home of the Empress. The author died in 1975 aged 93 and wrote that his “Happiest days as a boy were spent near Bridgnorth”. After the Second World War, Apley Hall was run as a state boarding school before falling into disrepair. It was then restored and divided up by Martin Ebelis who created a development of homes of gracious accommodation. The Estate has been handed down through generations and is owned by the trustees of the Estate of the 5th Lord Hamilton of Dalzell. deScription Accommodation is formed from the principal rooms of the southern side of the Mansion and is set over three floors with additional Cellars and a large Attic Room. Each room retains much of the original architectural detailing and craftmanship. Of particular note are the Library, Drawing Room and Master Bedroom Suite. The Library is referred to in detail by Pevsner with intricate plasterwork to the ceiling and a square fan-vaulted bay window. The first floor Drawing Room enjoys far reaching views of the garden and towards the river and the Dining Room, a former chapel, is part oak panelled with a carved ceiling and a large mullioned window. gArdenS Larder Kitchen / Breakfast Room FIRST FLOOR The private garden of Library House is laid to lawn and enjoys a 7.79 x 5.53 25'7 x 18'2 Summer Southerly aspect across the Severn Valley.

It offers a diverse range of scenery: from the lakes and rolling pasturelands around Ellesmere in the north, to the gaunt moorlands of the Clee Hills, with their stark industrial ruins, in the south; the densely wooded scarps of Wenlock Edge; or the straight, sandy lanes of the north-eastern heathlands, with their large arable fields and ‘big skys’.

    Shropshire Local Plan Review: Consultation on Preferred Sites November 2018 20. Wem Place Plan Area 20.1. The Wem Place Plan Area is located in north-east Shropshire. The Place Plan area contains the Key Centre of Wem and numerous small villages and hamlets. Settlement Type Settlement Name Key Centre: Wem • Clive Community Hubs: • Hadnall • Shawbury • Harmer Hill Community • Grinshill Clusters: • Edstaston, Quina Brook, Northwood, Newtown, Tilley and Aston 20.2. If your village is not included in the list of proposed Community Hubs or Community Clusters above, then this means that it will be ‘countryside’ for planning policy purposes, where new development is strictly controlled in accordance with national and local planning policies. 203 Shropshire Local Plan Review: Consultation on Preferred Sites November 2018 Key Centre: Wem Development Strategy 20.3. Wem has been identified as a Key Centre and contributes towards the strategic growth objectives in the north-east of the County. 20.4. The Local Plan Review will seek to achieve balanced housing and employment growth within Wem through the provision of around 600 dwellings and around 6 hectares of employment development between 2016 and 2036. 20.5. In the first year of the Local Plan Review period 64 dwellings were completed, with a further 231 dwellings committed through planning permission, prior approval or allocation. The SAMDev also identified 4 hectares of employment land on land off Shawbury Road which remains a commitment. Therefore, the Local Plan Review will need to identify suitable opportunities for the delivery of around a further 305 dwellings and 2 hectares of employment land on allocated sites and/or windfall development.
