Middleton Scriven is a tiny, predominantly rural civil parish in Shropshire, England, made up of a scattered hamlet, farmland and quiet lanes. The landscape is typical of the county’s quieter corners - hedged fields, occasional small woodlands and a handful of stone and brick farmsteads rather than a concentrated village centre.
Economically it is centred on agriculture and smallholdings, with a number of converted barns and cottages now home to commuters or people seeking a quieter life; services are taken from nearby larger villages and market towns. The parish has historic roots stretching back centuries, giving a sense of continuity in its built fabric and a close-knit local community that values conservation of the rural character.
