The former Rose & Crown (1), at Shrawley, Worcs This former public house closed over a year ago and permission has now been given to convert it into private residential accommodation. It used to be a Marston's house and the building itself is Grade II listed. It dates from the early 19th century with parts dating from the 20th century. It started life as a house, then became licensed premises and will shortly revert to residential use, so it has in effect come full circle. A sad loss to local amenities, but fortunately the village still has the New Inn and nearby is the Lenchford Inn.

New Pool is a picturesque freshwater marsh located in Worcestershire, England. Covering an area of approximately 10 hectares, it is a renowned natural attraction that offers a diverse range of habitats for various flora and fauna.

The marsh comprises a combination of lake, pool, pond, and wetland areas, providing a rich and diverse ecosystem. It is fed by several small streams and springs, ensuring a constant supply of freshwater. The water is clear and clean, making it an ideal environment for various aquatic plants and animals.

The vegetation surrounding New Pool is predominantly composed of reeds, rushes, and grasses, creating a lush and verdant landscape. These plants not only provide shelter and nesting sites for birds but also offer protection to the delicate ecosystem.

The pool itself is home to a wide array of waterfowl, including ducks, geese, and swans. These birds can be seen gracefully gliding across the surface of the water, creating a serene and tranquil atmosphere. The marsh also attracts numerous species of wading birds such as herons and egrets, which can often be spotted hunting for fish or amphibians in the shallower areas.

New Pool is a haven for nature enthusiasts and birdwatchers alike. Its tranquil surroundings and abundant wildlife make it an ideal location for leisurely walks, photography, and wildlife observation. Visitors can also enjoy the peaceful ambiance, as well as the opportunity to learn more about the importance of wetland conservation.

The former Rose & Crown (2), at Shrawley, Worcs This former pub is on the B4196 road, which runs through the straggly village of Shrawley.

Glazen Bridge On the turnpike from Bewdley to Worcester and rebuilt by the county council in 1925 with an iron balustrade.Not a particularly distinguished bridge (in my opinion) but selected for a mention in Fred Brook, The Industrial Archaeology of the British Isles, 1 West Midlands (1977). This crosses the Dick Brook.
