This may be a very fancy smoking shelter in the beer garden of the Nags Head, Shrewsbury, but its also a desperately unloved structure that really does need some TLC. Its just the screens passage of a c 1400 house... the hall of which was transplanted to Avoncroft in the 60s.

Letton Mill excavation is drawing to a close for its first year. Looking for a C16 or earlier Corn mill, we appear to have found two. Probably a Wigmore abbey foundation later remodelled by the Harley estate after the civil war. We have much more to learn about the site in 2022.
