Soulton Long Barrow sits in the Shropshire countryside and was chosen for its exceptional view of Hawkstone Hill, natural ponds and alignments to the Midsummer and Midwinter Solstice.
History
Soulton Hall’s history dates back to the Norman conquest and is today enjoyed by farmer Tim Ashton and his family. Tim worked closely with Cambridge University to construct Soulton Long Barrow according to historical practices. The land surrounding the barrow is farmed using sustainable methods, with minimal disruption to the soil and natural environment.
Visiting
Soulton Long Barrow can be found at Soulton Hall, Soulton, Wem, Shrewsbury SY4 5RS. Parking is available at the hall and at the barrow, which is a 10-15 minute walk along a well-formed farm track.
