Minsterley Brook

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Minsterley Brook is a small stream in Shropshire, England.

The source of this stream is at the northeast part of Stapeley Hill (the site of the stone circle, Mitchell's Fold).[1] It is later on joined by other smaller streams flowing into it. It is a steep rocky brook, fast flowing with occasional small water falls. The brook passes down the steep wooded Hope Valley which houses a nature reserve before passing through Plox Green. The brook then descends less steeply down through the grounds of the 16th century Minsterley Hall past Minsterley's Parish Hall.[2] After this it joins the larger river called the Rea Brook.
