Two bridleways cross the former Wrottesley estate, then cross each other here. Back and left to Wrottesley Lodge and Wrottesley Old Park. Forward and left to the A464 Shifnal Road. Back and right to The Bradshaws and Wrottesley Park. Forward and right to the A464 Shifnal Road. The Wrottesley Estate in Staffordshire existed from the 13th century but was sold off to its tenants in 1963. Wrottesley Park and Wrottesley Old Park remain as marked areas on many maps. Most of the land is used for wheat and barley with some oats, rape and potatoes. There are several small plantations of trees, and a larger one away to the west in (Patshull) High Park. Not all the farm roads and tracks in these parks have a public right of way.
