So who got to see the solar eclipse a couple weeks back?

We had some glorious sights here at Abbey Manor and at Buildwas Abbey too! - Thank you to Lee, our good friend who helped capture this moment for us!

It was certainly a beautiful view

During his spare time, Darren has been working on more side projects at Abbey Manor. This time experimenting with some stained glass windows to brighten up the place.

We had the wonderful Jackie back last weekend hosting a very special soundscape at Buildwas Abbey.

Owner Darren provided a wonderful tour of Abbey Manor to those that attended the history of Abbey Manor and Buildwas Abbey.

It was a unique experience and we can't wait to have Jackie back again in the future.

Keep an eye out as we will be posting about this very soon!

A nice little spot while wandering the grounds. A little caterpillar making the most of the wild flowers we have here.

We get lots of critters, including lots of small insects and various birds and even deer being spotted around here!

Daria Kot - Reconnect with Nature's next event booking is now live!

We look forward to welcoming Daria again at Abbey Manor in the autumn who will be hosting her first mushroom walk in our woodlands.

Places are limited, so make sure to book to avoid not being able to secure a spot!

Our mushroom walk is officially live on Eventbrite! I will keep the group small so places are limited. It will be our very first mushroom walk so feeling extremely excited, even though not sure yet what mushrooms will grow there and how this summer's dry condition will affect them. Lets hope rain comes soon and mycelium start producing its fruits in abundance.

Today is the last day of our Free Family Yoga session held by the wonderful Happy Kids Yoga Telford & Shrewsbury .

It’s at 10:30am, so there’s still time to join in with the family.

Recommended donation if you are able to donate to ensure we are able to continue hosting events like this is £8 (per family, not each).

We hope to see you there!

Our resident dog Drizzt certainly approves of our efforts to clear the overgrowth to ensure our view of Buildwas Abbey remains nice and clear.

We work in collaboration with English Heritage to ensure the longevity of the abbey by taming back overgrowth to prevent it from deteriating over time.

Our Apple Day is up and coming in the next month, and we are happy to announce it will be bigger than last years.

We have plenty of stalls, more entertainment, and of course our apple pressing and apple cider bar which will be flowing with cider made from last years press!

We are also happy to annouce a new addition this year, which will be our raffle! The main prize will be a full keg of our own brewed apple cider, amongst other hand crafted goods generously donated by our stall holders. Money made from the raffle will be going to ensure we can keep putting on this wonderful community event, but will also be split with a charity close to our hearts - Severn Hospice

Make sure you have this date in your calenders!
