THE SHENSTONE TRAIL
|
||
|
|
Armed with leaflets for information We began our village exploration
With much to see, the list was extensive Albeit extremely comprehensive
Where every building told a story From mighty mansions in all their glory
To tiny terraces, cottages small The Cenotaph, Oddfellows Hall
Sturdy houses built to last All reflecting Shenstone’s past
The Old Tower currently being restored With so much history to be explored
In spite of the heat which was simply intense The wealth of interest was immense
We returned to the library to enjoy a cream tea Being made very welcome, I’m sure you’ll agree
The library’s dedicated team Served strawberries, jam and clotted cream
The scones could not have tasted finer And all was served on dainty china
A further highlight to end the day In Shenstone on the latest foray
