The Nag's Head

Highlight • Pub

The Nags Head is a grade 2 listed former coaching inn. The food is excellent, more fine dining than classic pub but very good. They also serve snacks, drinks and offer rooms.

Montgomery Canal – Severn Way

Highlight • Cycleway

The Severn Way is flat and runs largely along the canal, so it is easy but highly recommended. There's something about just following a river.

This iron bridge over the River Severn and the Montgomery Canal was built in 1852 after a flood destroyed the timber bridge. Today, it remains very much in use as a key access point to Abermule and is Grade II-listed.
