The Recreation Ground car park in Ruyton-XI-Towns, Shropshire
A free public car park in this lovely little town. My first visit to this bizarrely named place. Oh! How many times have I seen a road sign for it, and bemusedly mulled its name over in my head, wondering what it could be (is it really eleven towns? Is it therefore a massive conurbation that I have neglected to be aware of? Is it bigger than Telford, a new town? Why eleven? Why Roman numerals? Why does no-one ever mention it? Why does nobody go there and return buzzing with high praise? Why do I not know a person who lives there? Does it really exist? Why does everyone I ask seem to know even less than me? And so on ...)
I have lived in Shropshire since March 2004. In nearly 20 years I have never had cause to come here. I have , as I say, driven past many, many times. I have been to Baschurch several times, to Bomere Heath also a few times. I even have friends in both places. I have sung in a choir at the church at Leaton. I have been almost everywhere in the large county, but this area seems to have had a force-field around it - until now! I have even put visiting Ruyton-XI-Towns on a list, a kind of bucket list, of places I must go in Shropshire.
Maybe today my knowledge, love for, awareness of and appreciation of the county will be nearing completion?
Though I must admit, I have yet to visit Albrighton and Shifnal! I intend to rectify that too. They are on the same list. Watch this space!

The Talbot Country Inn, Ruyton XI Towns
This village's odd name dates back to the 12th century when it was the major manor of 11 townships. The Talbot is an old coaching inn on Church Street.
