Much Wenlock
Much Wenlock is a town as well as parish in Shropshire, England, situated on the A458 road in between Shrewsbury as well as Bridgnorth. Close by, to the northeast, is the Ironbridge Gorge, and also the new community of Telford. The civil parish consists of the towns of Homer (1 mile north of the community), Wyke (2 miles northeast), Atterley (2 miles southeast) and also Bourton (3 miles southwest). The population of the civil parish, according to the 2001 census, was 2,605, increasing to 2,877 at the 2011 Census. Much Wenlock was historically the chief community of the old district of Wenlock. The "Much" was contributed to the name to identify it from the close-by Little Wenlock, as well as signifies that it is the larger of the two negotiations. Notable historic destinations in the community are Wenlock Priory and the Guildhall. The name Wenlock probably originates from the Celtic name Wininicas, implying "white area" (of the limestone of Wenlock Edge), plus the Old English loca, implying "enclosed place". The community was recorded in the Domesday Book as Wenloch. The Wenlock Olympian Games established by Dr William Penny Brookes in 1850 are centred in the town. Dr Brookes is credited as a founding father of the contemporary Olympic Games, and among the London 2012 Summer Olympics mascots; named Wenlock after the community.
