Bayston Hill, Shropshire - The Largest Population of Any Village in the County History and Facts
Bayston Hill - The Largest Population of Any Shropshire Village
With over 5,000 residents in the 2011 census Bayston Hill is Shropshire's most populated village.
At just 3 miles from Shrewsbury centre it is easy to think of it as a dormitory village, but it has origins in the middle ages, borders on lovely Shropshire countryside, has 3 pubs, 2 churches, schools and a public library.
Lyth Hill to the south of the village is within walking distance from the centre, and is a major Shropshire attraction, especially for dog walkers, with open views to south Shropshire from the public parkland which follows top of the escarpment along the hillside.
There is remaining evidence of both an ancient British Iron Age hillfort and a Roman settlement located on the village's high grounds.
In the Middle Ages the heavily wooded Bayston Hill and Condover area was established as a Royal hunting forest. A busy rope works, complete with its own windmill built in 1835, existed on Lyth Hill in the 19th century.
The rope industry supplied the many mines, farms, and barge owners of those times in this area. A church was built alongside the village glebelands in 1843 to serve the local miners, quarrymen and railway navvies.
Standing on the south east side is the village's oldest archaeological site: a mounded Iron Age bivallate hill fort.
It's relatively low lying for such a structure and oddly named with the Danish name of The Burgs, but probably was not called that until sometime between the 14th and 16th centuries.
The village was surveyed for the Domesday Book during the year 1086, when it was called Begestan, and William Pantulf, an Anglo-Norman nobleman, held land there.
One final odd fact to ponder about Bayston Hill is that although the railway runs right past the village, Bayston Hill has never had its own railway station.

Great historical information, great to know as we are planning on exploring around that area soon, so thank you so much for the inspiration!
For clarity, Snailbeach mine was a lead mine.
Excellent bit of history. Local history for all areas should be shared in this way. Thank you.
P.S. One more subscriber. Do a walkabout video as well and a bit of info on the Quarry as well would be good.
Like what you've written, but why not have a got at voicing it yourself? Computers always sound a little, well, computery.
Clive was a clever democrat

Thanks for sharing that! I lived in Shrewsbury for a year and a bit, and i asked many people about that statue, but nobody knew who he was...
He was decoit and a cruel human being .But As always Britain love that kind of people. Do a google search or youtube, you will know
Fascinating. I love the place & lived here for years....
Lord clive was the savior of india otherwise the nawab killed every indian hindoos if Clive don't punish nawab shuja n to expand the British Empire all were good which got done by lord clive otherwise nawab probably genocide every indian hindoos nawab shuja was a Iranian Mughal origin hes not even indian n the aryans r also not indians thy invade india in 1500 bc. So why aryans blamed on British ? They r also not indians.
Chirk Castle and Powis Castle are in Wales, not Shropshire.
He was the one who was responsible for the Plassey War in 1757. He started to destroy India.

Samuel Johnson wrote that he "had acquired his fortune by such crimes that his consciousness of them impelled him to cut his own throat"

Darwin was in Mauritius staying at The Tabor in Beay Bassin.He stayed there about a week.The Tabor is shrouded with mystique.Its lovely to wander about but if allowed.Many natives probably as I was experience fear awe because it is still enveloped in a Bourgeois intellectualism poor- keep -away kind of atmosphere.
Clive was nothing but an inhuman thief. A liar and a thief, looted India, ran back to England became a psycho and committed suicide. All of them were bunch of thieves.
Usne suicide kyu kia tha

It would be interesting if I could read the writing before it disappears out of view. Very distracting music also.

It's the sort of place that seems almost like you've been transported back into the past! Not a bad thing. Really rather enjoyable.
Success! I am delighted that it has just been announced that the Shrewsbury University has taken on the house for their educational use, and that it is planned that visitors will be allowed to visit in some way. Possibly there will be a Darwin in Shrewsbury exhibition!
