About The Tom Pickering benchwalk :
The Tom Pickering benchwalks seek to build on Little Wenlock’s strong sense of ‘place’, providing opportunities for all to sit and savour the wonderful surroundings of the Shropshire Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB).
Inspired by and dedicated to a true country boy from Dawley, they have been made possible by the hard work of many of his friends and the generous support of the Shropshire Hills AONB and E.ON UK.
The benches are made from oak and chestnut from the sustainably-managed Harris’ coppice on the ancient route from Buildwas by an experienced local craftsman using traditional techniques. They are each dedicated to the memory of a local loved one.
This Bench is the 8th bench on the Benchwalk and is called "Lady Ash". It is dedicated to Tom, who here found he was at one with nature, and Dot Dixon who found the view from this spot inspirational.
Where is this bench located?: On Buildwas Lane in Little Wenlock, Shropshire
Who is this bench honoring?: Tom and Dot Dixon
