Norton in Hales is a small village and civil parish in the north‑east of Shropshire, England, sitting on rolling farmland close to the borders with Cheshire and Staffordshire. It lies a few miles from the market town of Market Drayton and is characterised by quiet lanes, hedgerows and pockets of woodland with pleasant rural views.
Historically agricultural, the parish still leans on farming while a number of residents commute to nearby towns; local life revolves around village amenities, the parish church and community events. The village’s traditional buildings and long local associations give it the kind of strong village identity and social networks typical of rural Shropshire.
