Hopton Heath
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Hopton Heath, or Hoptonheath, is a small village in South Shropshire, England. The border with Herefordshire is close by.[1]
There is a railway station here - Hopton Heath railway station - which today is little more than a halt on the Heart of Wales Line.
Not far from the village are the villages of Hopton Castle, Bedstone, Clungunford and the hamlets of Beckjay and Abcott - with its Rocke Cottage (was Bird on the Rock) tea rooms.
