Yockleton

Yockleton is a village in Shropshire, England.

Yockleton is west of the county town of Shrewsbury, just off the B4386 road to Montgomery and near the River Severn[1].

There is one local pub, the Yockleton Arms[2], several miles west on the B4386, a Village Church (C of E)[3], and a village hall, as well as an old people's home in the old Vicarage.

Previously Yockleton had a school, a garage, a post office and a pub in the heart of the village. These have closed as the village has developed into a commuter village for Shrewsbury. There is a Motte and Bailey in a field not far from the church.

Yockleton is near to Ford and Westbury; the hamlet of Edge lies due south of the village.
