Wistanswick Village Website

 
Wistanswick is a small village about 6 miles away from Market Drayton in North Shropshire. It consists of less than 50 homes and various farms and businesses. The local public house 'The Red Lion' closed in 1998 and has been shut ever since. There is hope that it re-open in the near future following its recent change of ownership, however, there is a lot of pessimism amongst the local population following previous hopes being dashed many times in the past.

 

The community in the village and surrounding area enjoy the surroundings of open countryside and quite country living of this semi-remote part of North Shropshire. The village of Wistanswick is just off the A41 north of Newport and affords easy access to many towns and cities. Telford and Shrewsbury are only half an hours drive from the village and Stoke on Trent, Birmingham and even Manchester are within a short distance for commuters.
