Where is "Blythsbury"
« on: Monday 08 October 07 13:31 BST (UK) »
Hi all,

A will transcription refers to Blythsbury nr Shifnal. I've looked at maps of the Shifnal area (old & new) but cannot spot it. Anybody know where Blythsbury is ?

Regards,

Barry

I've found a Blythesbury Farm on the ordnance survey site http://www.ordnancesurvey.co.uk/oswebsite/ (Get-a-Map). It's about 2Km to the wnw of Shifnal - follow the railway line towards Telford :)

Hi Gadget,

Thanks very much for the info. I think I need new specs as I must have looked at that area a million times.
