Welcome to Tern

Tern is a small village located in the county of Staffordshire, England. It is situated on the banks of the River Tern, which flows through the village and provides a picturesque setting for visitors. The village is known for its historic buildings, including the 12th-century St. Michael's Church, which is a Grade II listed building. The church is a popular attraction for visitors to the village, and its beautiful architecture and stained glass windows are a testament to the village's rich history.

Tern is also home to a number of local businesses, including a post office, a convenience store, and a pub. The pub, called The Tern Inn, is a popular spot for locals and visitors alike. It serves a range of traditional pub food and drinks, and its friendly atmosphere makes it a great place to relax and unwind after a day of exploring the village and its surroundings.

One of the main attractions of Tern is its proximity to the Shropshire Union Canal. The canal runs through the village and provides a scenic route for walkers and cyclists. Visitors can take a leisurely stroll along the towpath, taking in the beautiful countryside and wildlife along the way. The canal is also a popular spot for boating enthusiasts, and there are a number of boat hire companies in the area that offer day trips and longer cruises along the canal.
