Welcome to Coalmoor

Coalmoor is a small village located in the county of Shropshire, England. The village is situated in the heart of the county and is surrounded by beautiful countryside. Coalmoor is a peaceful and quiet village, with a population of just over 200 people. The village is known for its picturesque scenery and is a popular destination for tourists who want to escape the hustle and bustle of city life.

Coalmoor has a rich history, dating back to the 17th century. The village was once a thriving mining community, with several coal mines operating in the area. The mines provided employment for many of the villagers and were a significant source of income for the local economy. Today, the mines have long since closed, and the village has diversified its economy to include agriculture and tourism.

Despite its small size, Coalmoor has a strong sense of community. The village has a primary school, a church, and a village hall, which is used for community events and activities. The villagers are friendly and welcoming, and there is a real sense of pride in the village. Coalmoor is a great place to live or visit, and its beautiful countryside and friendly community make it a hidden gem in the heart of Shropshire.
