Striking views back down Carding Mill Valley. Up Carding Mill Valley and across the Long Mynd Plateau and Wild Moor. Site of Richard Munslow's grave, reputedly Britain's last sin-eater who died in 1906.

Hilly: a third on high ground, rising above the surrounding land.

Carding Mill Valley and the Long Mynd: Take a walk across the wildlife-rich heathland and enjoy the views across the Shropshire Hills, or simply play in the stream in the valley (National Trust).

Warnings: Steep ascent to top of Long Mynd; faint moorland paths obscured by undergrowth.
