Minton’s Pool Plantation

Part of a large wood with Limekilns Plantation, Willmoor Pool Plantation, and The Pools Plantation. In the 1917 sale catalogue, it was listed as 13.21 acres in size. Since the sale, all of these plantations have been grubbed up and turned back into fields.

In 1891, Forbes’ survey described the plantation:

The North-east corner contains a few young hardwoods and several acres of Willow coppice, which have been cut over recently. The remainder consists of young Poplars, fifteen to twenty years of age and in a very thriving condition.

Ordnance Survey 25 inches to the mile. Shropshire XXX.13, revised 1900. Reproduced with the permission of the National Library of Scotland.
