The large garden which has 6 foot fencing is safe for your dog to play in. There is safe and secure parking for 2 cars only. On wednesday evenings, the village is alive with the sound of church bells ringing from the beautiful church St Johns on bell practice ringing night and is a delight to hear.
Oakwood is central for Cheshire/Shropshire/Staffordshire and Wales. There are many places to visit, such as the world famous Ironbridge and nine National Trust Houses and Gardens. We are fortunate to live close by to a wonderful nature reserve with woodland walks and the award winning canalside village of Audlem with its circular walks and tearooms.
