Shelf Bank
This large hill in the centre of Oswestry is a 3 hectare area consisting of acid grassland and naturally regenerated areas of woodland and scrub. ==Location and surroundings== The site occupies the majority of a knoll which offers views across Oswestry town and the wider Shropshire countryside. For that reason during WWII anti aircraft guns and lookout posts were established on the summit. Along the southern edge of the site there can be found a section of Wats Dyke, an earth bank structure dating back to the Dark Ages. On the North side, it was surrounded by a vast desolate area of old railway sidings of the Oswestry Branch Line (closed many years ago) and a huge Victorian engineering works, that has now been converted into a new Health Centre. On the rare occasions when snow falls in the town, it provides the local populace with superb sledging opportunities.
