Stage 14: Llanymynech to Nesscliffe


***Stages 14 and 15 - Nesscliffe ***

There will be increased noise from 22-26th January 2024 on the Nesscliffe training camp while Specialist Military live explosion demolition training takes place. Increased security measures will be in operation on the camp during this time to ensure safety of the public. All public rights of way will remain open.

The Argae along the River Vyrnwy

The argae is a flood defence along quite a stretch of the River Vyrnwy as you walk this stage. A warning that in winter after heavy rainfall some areas can be flooded.


The unusual timber framed church of St Peter's at Melverley stands right on the river bank . The Shropshire Way joins the Severn Way here and leaves the village crossing a stile at the road. The lanes can be used as an alternative if the fields are wet. A short deviation to The Royal Hill pub is a pleasant location by the river to pause for refreshment.
