Welcome to Hughley Brook

Hughley Brook is a small river that flows through the county of Shropshire in England. It is a tributary of the River Severn and is approximately 10 miles long. The brook rises in the hills near the village of Hughley and flows through the villages of Brockton, Barrow, and Cressage before joining the River Severn near Buildwas. The brook is known for its clear waters and is a popular spot for fishing and wildlife watching.

The Hughley Brook is home to a variety of wildlife, including otters, kingfishers, and brown trout. The brook is also home to a number of rare and endangered species, such as the white-clawed crayfish and the water vole. The brook is protected by the Shropshire Wildlife Trust, which works to preserve the natural habitat of the brook and its surrounding areas.

The Hughley Brook is an important part of the local community in Shropshire. It provides a source of water for local farms and is a popular spot for outdoor activities such as walking, cycling, and fishing. The brook is also an important part of the local history, with many of the villages along its banks dating back to the medieval period. Overall, the Hughley Brook is a beautiful and important part of the Shropshire landscape, and is cherished by locals and visitors alike.
