	Haughmond Hill Introduction (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		Haughmond Hill is formed from some of the oldest rocks in Shropshire.
		It is one of a number of Precambrian hills with stunning views of the Shropshire landscape.
		Like Lyth Hill, Haughmond Hill is made up of ancient sediments, cascading off the edge of a continent into the ocean that surrounded it.

	Local Heritage Initiative - Rock Makes the Lyth Hill Landscape
		The Lyth Hill ridge is part of the north-easterly extension of the up-folded line of ancient rocks (Precambrian, about 550 million years old) which connects the Long Mynd to the south west with Haughmond Hill to the north east.
		The Wrekin and Stretton Hills are remnants of the eastern limb.
		The geological evolution of the hills can be traced from the oldest Precambrian of the Wrekin and Pontesford Hill, through the period when we were on the edge of a great ocean out to the west, with limestones and other shallow water sediments to the east, giving Wenlock Edge and the Stiperstones.

	Secret Shropshire
		Haughmond Hill is a lump of ancient rock rising above Shrewsbury.
		The rocks of Haughmond Hill date from the late Precambrian period, between 570 and 700 million years ago.
		The most valuable rock quarried from Haughmond Hill by Aggregate Industries is a hard grey rock called Grey Wacke which is pronounced Grey Whacky.

	Haughmond Abbey, Shrewsbury, Shropshire - English Heritage Property
		Haughmond Abbey, which is sometimes referred to as the Abbey of St John the Evangelist, is located only four miles outside of Shrewsbury and of the three houses of Austin canons established in Shropshire, Haughmond founded in 1135 by William Fitzalan, is the older.
		Close by on the hill is the spot known as Douglas's Leap - where the Earl of Douglas, in flight from the Battle of Shrewsbury, was thrown from his horse and captured by Henry IV's men.
		The Battle of Shrewsbury between King Henry IV and the rebels led by Henry 'Hotspur' Percy, in 1403 took place near Haughmond abbey, approximately two miles to the north-west of the abbey.

	Walking opportunities close to Lyth Hill House
		Lyth Hill House is situated on Lyth Hill, an unspoilt area designated a "Country Park." We are 5 miles south of Shrewsbury and our map reference is SJ 467071.
		We are quietly situated, overlooking miles of countryside with Shrewsbury and the Welsh Hills in the distance.
		To the north of Shrewsbury away from the hills, the meres have their own appeal, teaming with wild-life with lots of walking opportunities round the lakes as well as along a network of canals.

	An upland grassland community in Shropshire
		The Precambrian Longmyndian shales of the Long Mynd, Earls Hill and Haughmond Hill are perfect, but it also occurs over the igneous Dolerite on Titterstone Clee and at The Lump, Priestweston.
		The former can be found on the Long Mynd, at Earl's Hill and Titterstone Clee, while the latter occurs on the Long Mynd, at Pulverbatch Castle, Haughmond Hill, The Lump, Priestweston, and on the roadside verge at Clun.
		It used to grow on Earl's Hill, and was once on The Cliffe, The Wrekin and Harmer Hill.

	Training and Professional Development in Biosciences
		A course on recording and identifying the native wild plants of Haughmond Hill with Sarah Whild and Alex Lockton in partnership with the Shropshire Botanical Society
		There are few ‘repeat’ floras of sites and although Haughmond Hill has never had a formal published Flora, there have been at least two comprehensive surveys in the 1950s and 1980s.
		At the end of the course, you should be familiar with the general use of an appropriate wild plant key for identifying a range of plant taxa, and you should be able to plan a small botanical survey and write up the results.

	ENGLISH NATURE - Special Sites
		In the west and south-west of the County, the Shropshire Hills form an area of great diversity of landform, vegetation and landscape character comprising the Clee Hills, Wenlock Edge, Stretton Hills, Long Mynd, Stiperstones and the Wrekin.
		Running in a line parallel to the orientation of the Pre-Cambrian formed hills is the distinctive wooded escarpment over 25 km long, on Wenlock Edge, which is flanked on either side by broad, flat-bottomed dales (Apedale and Hopedale).
		These hills protrude from the Old Red Sandstone plateau and are formed of Carboniferous Limestone and Coal Measures, capped by a thick layer of basalt.

		Traces of the Clive copper mines are now difficult to locate, but even the most casual visitor to the hill cannot fail to be struck by the numerous rock faces and now over grown sandstone quarries, of which there are over 30 in Grinshill and Clive parishes.
		Grinshill Hill is formed of Triassic sandstone’s and mudstones, formed respectively by wind deposition and in shallow lagoons between 270 and 200 million years ago, when the area was a hot desert.
		The tradition that Grinshill stone was quarried by the Romans cannot be substantiated, but quarries have certainly existed on the hill for about ten centuries, and have provided stone for building Haughmond Abbey (begun circa 1135) and several of North Shropshire’s 12th century churches and chapels.
