Floating Water-plantain is a real rarity in Shropshire, the UK and Europe but the flood-plains of Kinnerley provide it a home.  Click the photo to see a map of where it is found in Shropshire.

Spindle is an attractive shrub that is rather uncommon in Shropshire.  It was last recorded near the village of Kinnerley in 1984.  Have you seen it since?

Have a look in the hedgerows in autumn for the amazing pink fruit with bright orange seeds.  If you do find it please do let the Shropshire Botanical Society know of your find so we can update our maps.  You can use our online form by clicking HERE.

Spindle is relatively common in the rest of parish perhaps because the hedgerows in the Kinnerley parish are so good.  Click the photo to find out where in Shropshire Spindle is found.
