Trinity Cottage is situated in the heart of Edgmond, a rural village which sits in the north east of the Shropshire countryside, about two miles from Newport, with its schools of high repute and leisure and shopping facilities, and approximately eight miles from and fifteen miles from Shrewsbury, larger towns with even more amenities, rail and motorway links.

The village itself has many facilities and amenities. There are two pubs – The Lion and The Lamb, and two churches – St Peter’s Church and The Methodist Chapel. The Telford & Wrekin maintained Playing Fields are in the centre of the village with cricket & football pitches set out. There is a playground for young children behind the Bowling Club and a fenced multi-purpose games area next to the Cricket Pavilion. The Post Office is housed in the Village Stores on the High Street in the centre of the village.

Edgmond also has many areas for walking and biking, including a walk through the area known locally as The Rock Hole, an old sandstone quarry from which the rock used to build the Church was probably taken.

Trinity Cottage is a home of great character and contrasting styles, with the original parts of the building believed to date from 1835 and earlier, some being contemporary with the creation of the branch of the, now isolated, Newport Canal, originally part of the Shrewsbury & Newport Canal system. The history of this intriguing cottage shows part of it to have once been a public house known as the Pipers Arms, and many original features remain within its walls, including a large inglenook fireplace in the Lounge, internal access to the beer cellar. The owners have lovingly renovated the property over the past 36 years, stripping the ceiling beams back to their original finish, and replacing most of the original single glazed windows with wooden framed casement ones, in keeping with the style of the cottage.

Enhancements to the property include the garage with a self-contained studio flat over, which can be accessed either from within the main house or from the entrance Hall. A conservatory added to the rear of the property looks out into the private courtyard garden, which has been designed on many levels, giving a variety of seating areas to catch the sunshine at different times of the day. The garden is surrounded by hedges, fences, brick walls, with a grassed area and well filled planted borders of shrubs and perennials.
