West Felton is a largely rural parish in Shropshire, England, sitting close to the border with Wales and a few miles from the market town of Oswestry. The landscape is gently rolling farmland and hedgerow-lined lanes, with pockets of woodland and a scattering of hamlets and country houses that give the area a quietly picturesque character.
Locally the economy remains centred on agriculture alongside a number of small businesses and commuters to nearby towns, and community life is anchored by a historic parish church, village hall and local events. The parish is popular with walkers and equestrian enthusiasts and retains a strong sense of local identity and continuity, with several listed buildings and traces of older rural settlement visible across the countryside.
