A walking guide from Lawley Village in Telford up to New Works. this is a short walk, but offers the opportunity to explore across the fields and through woodland to the Wrekin. www.strava.com...
The garage you walked past in Lawley used to be called Ralph's garage. It was on the junction of Wellington Road and Dawley Road back in the 1960's. My Dad used to get his petrol there when we lived over Horsehay Common. Happy days.
I still call it Ralphs garage now! I worked at a foundry in Lawley when I was 15, it’s hard to see where it was now, but I think at the bottom of Station road... that was a country Lane then.
A message for those that can help “Thanks for showing Smalley Hill LNR. My local conservation group TWWIG manage the site with Shropshire Wildlife Trust and undertake practical and survey work once a month. Due to the present situation we have suspended work parties but hopefully we can restart in near future. If anyone on your page is intrested in joining us please contact me Carl Griffin TWWiG - Telford West Wildlife Group or email @twwigenquiries@gmail.com
@7:20 near there, there is an old memorial to possibly some miners/explorers that died, their gravestone has fallen down the hill to your right and is laying there.
