Little Wenlock is a small rural parish within the borough of Telford and Wrekin in Shropshire, set on the rolling limestone country around Wenlock Edge. The settlement has medieval origins and a scattering of older stone houses and farmsteads, reflecting a history of agriculture alongside historic connections to the county’s coal and limestone industries that fed the nearby industrial heartlands.

Today it’s prized for its countryside character and walking access, with public footpaths giving wide views across Shropshire and easy links to nearby towns and heritage sites such as Much Wenlock and the Ironbridge area; community life remains village‑focused, with local events and a quiet, commuter‑friendly feel for those working in Telford.
