High Ercall in Telford and Wrekin, Shropshire, England is a small rural village and civil parish set among hedged farmland a short drive north‑east of Telford and within commuting distance of Shrewsbury. It retains a quiet, village character of stone cottages, lanes and agricultural land, while the local economy mixes farming with small businesses and commuters to nearby towns.
The parish has historic roots visible in its medieval church and vernacular buildings, and is notable for the nearby RAF High Ercall airfield, which played a role in the Second World War and whose former runways and buildings have been repurposed for light industry and storage. Community life centres on a village hall, occasional events and a local pub, with active interest in conserving the area’s rural and historic features.
