Much Wenlock Park

Spectacular ruins located on the edge of the town which are the remains of a 12th-century church that belonged to the Cluniac monastery, refounded in 1079 and 1082, on the site of an earlier 7th-century foundation, by Roger de Montgomery. It is thought to be the final resting place of St Milburga, whose bones were discovered during restoration work in 1101. Wenlock Priory is the perfect place to sit on a warm, mid-summer day and relax. The delightful grounds contain a well groomed collection of topiary.

If you want to spend some time inside, Wenlock Pottery offer you the chance to paint some ceramics and take them home. They also sell souvenirs.

Much Wenlock's church is Norman and has a battlemented tower and Jacobean pulpit with carved panels, depicting, rather oddly, some two-tailed mermen.

The Guidhall is the town's government building with chambers for political discussion, it can be visited depending on the time of the year. There are also markets and monthly art exhibitions.

Houses a collection of memorabilia relating to the town and its townsfolk. It also houses a separate Olympic collection.
