LOCATION With unspoilt views towards Rorrington Hill, Stapley Hill and the Long Mountain, this modernised yet traditional dwelling is situated in reasonable proximity to local amenities and services with walks to be enjoyed only a stone's throw away from your front door. The Mount is accessed via a no through road demonstrating its secluded and private situation, yet the main road from Shrewsbury to Montgomery is only 2 miles away which runs through the popular village of Marton. Marton has a local village shop, post office, two pubs, a church and an active village hall all of which are well supported by the local community. LOCAL AMENITIES First recognised in the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle in 915, the village of Chirbury sits 3.5 miles from The Mount close to the Welsh Border in the Vale of Montgomery. Hosting a primary school, there is also a pub, post office and

village shop. West of the village lies the Offa's Dyke National Trail along the English/Welsh border running alongside the 8th Century Offa's Dyke offering beautiful walks and scenery. A little further afield in the Welsh Marches, the town of Montgomery lies 6.2 miles from the cottage. Amongst the timber framed buildings and Georgian architecture, there is much to offer with pubs, eateries, shops lining the streets and plenty of places to visit such as the castle or the museum, Montgomery really is not to be missed.
