Shelf Bank

This large hill in the centre of Oswestry was apparently donated to "the children of Oswestry" by a long-forgotton landlord. On the North side, it is surrounded by a vast desolate area of old railway sidings of the Oswestry Branch Line (closed many years ago) and a huge Victorian engineering works, now converted into antique shops. On the rare occasions when snow falls in the town, it provides superb sledging opportunities.
