Marches Line
Take the train into the heart of this
unspoilt borderland with its big river valleys, tumbling streams and
rolling upland. Walking in the valleys of the Severn, Onny, Teme and
Wye is also a popular pastime, and you can use the connecting bus
network to explore even further afield.
The Shropshire and Herefordshire Marches are
one of the few remaining truly peaceful backwaters of Britain. As well
as the spectacular scenery, the area offers historic county towns such
as Shrewsbury and Hereford to explore at leisure, together with stops
such as Church Stretton, Craven Arms, Leominster and Ludlow, all of
them steeped in history and places to visit.
And there are attractions to suit all tastes along the line, including
Hereford Cider Museum, Secret Hills Discovery Centre, Ludlow Castle,
Stokesay Castle and much more.
