Nash was a village in Shropshire, England which is believed to have been wiped out entirely by the Black Death of c.1349. It now no longer exists and is described as a lost settlement, deserted medieval village or abandoned village. The 1349 manorial income for Nash (also referred to as Nesse) indicates that the village was unable to pay any monies "because the inhabitants are dead". Despite this, the village was home to a farmer called Hercules Felton in 1668 and it had three people paying hearth tax by 1672, and a single barn remained by 1839, suggesting that some human life remained in the area. Nash has been completed deserted since at least the mid-19th century and the old site is located in the middle of fields near Wrockwardine, though no road or footpath survives to provide access to the area. A small wood near Drummery Lane marks the location where the foundations of house platforms are speculated to lie but no excavations have ever been conducted on the site of the lost village.

Wrockwardine ( ROCK-war-dyne) is a village and civil parish in the borough of Telford and Wrekin and ceremonial county of Shropshire, England. It lies north of The Wrekin and the M54/A5, and west of Wellington. There is a Church of England parish church, St Peter's, dating back to Saxon times.

Admaston railway station was a railway station serving the village of Admaston in Shropshire, England. It was located on what is now known as the Shrewsbury to Wolverhampton Line.

Admaston is a village in the English ceremonial county of Shropshire, in the borough of Telford & Wrekin. It is located northwest of Wellington and close to the village of Wrockwardine. It now forms part of the Telford new town.

The Ercall is a small hill in Shropshire, England, between The Wrekin and Wellington. It is an internationally important geological site, part of The Wrekin and The Ercall Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI). The hill is managed by Shropshire Wildlife Trust and includes 540 million year old ripple beds and ancient pre-Cambrian lava flows in exposed quarries. Quartzite from the neighbouring Wrekin is also visible. The Ercall bears the marks of extensive quarrying, although the quarries are now disused, safe and open to the public. When the M54 motorway was constructed in 1974, the road was built through the northern end of the hill.

Dothill is a small district in the north-western part of Telford, England. It is located to the north-west of Wellington, one of the old towns that form a part of the modern-day new town of Telford. The area of Dothill used to be the home of the Forester family, including Sir William Forester, in the 17th century. Nowadays, Dothill is mainly a residential area, having been built up in the 1960s and 1990s. The main housing estate in Dothill is the Brooklands Estate, as well as the Harley Close Estate, which was built up in the 1990s. Dothill also has its own infant and primary schools and its own secondary school, the Charlton School, which in 2016, relocated to a new site on the vacant Blessed Robert Johnson Catholic College in Apley Avenue. However, this is still within the Dothill Area. There are also some recreational countryside areas and a pool, called Dothill Pool, which is home for wildlife such as ducks and locally famous swans. Nearby areas include Wellington, Admaston, Shawbirch and Apley. Dothill is also close to The Princess Royal Hospital, which is located in the neighbouring area, Apley. There is also a row of shops in the Brooklands estate, consisting of a convenience store, hair salon, charity shop, spa, fish-bar and a butcher's shop. There is also a Co-operative Food store located near the Charlton School. Dothill also had two blocks of flats, Apley Court and Haughmond Court (demolished 2016). These tower blocks overlooked Wellington, Apley, Shawbirch and other nearby areas. There is also a footbridge located near the old Charlton School. This footbridge goes over the A5223 (Whitchurch Drive) providing access from Dothill to Apley Woods.

Uriconian rocks are volcanic rocks found in parts of Shropshire, United Kingdom. The name relates to Uriconio, the Latin name for an Iron Age hillfort on the summit of the Wrekin, a hill formed of Uriconian rock. The Uriconian rocks of Shropshire (Wrekin Terrane) are thought to be potentially related to the Longmyndian Supergroup of the Stretton Hills, Shropshire, United Kingdom. Current geological profiling of the terranes suggests that the Uriconian rocks are of Precambrian age (Neoproterozoic Phases 2 and 3). The Uriconian Rocks outcrop to the southeast of the Long Mynd area of the Welsh Borderland Fault System and beyond the Church Stretton Fault which trends northeast-southwest across the area. The Stretton Hills are composed primarily of arenaceous (quartz rich sand) beds assigned to the Longmyndian Supergroup. The Longmyndian rocks are a c.6 km thick group of volcaniclastic and bentonitic sediment horizons. The Uriconian have long thought to be older than the Longmyndian and generally outcrop to the southeast of the latter within northeast-southwest trending lineaments suggesting basement influence for the regional structure.The Uriconian rocks outcrop in areas from Wellington, Shropshire to Primrose Hill on the southwest side of The Wrekin, east of Caer Caradoc and in the Craven Arms Inlier. Primarily the strata exist as fault-bounded slices within splays of, and to the southeast of, the main Church Stretton fault system. The Uriconian rocks comprise both intermediate to acidic and basic (bimodal) volcanic suites that reflect largely intraplate origins for the complex although some subduction signatures have been identified. Further work has led to suggest that the locality of this kind of volcanism is related to marginal basin volcanicity (behind the main arc) influenced by trans-tension brought about by oblique subduction.The Neoproterozoic sediments were deposited on Avalonia in various strike-slip faulted basins and they comprise predominantly volcaniclastic and siliciclastic sediments.
