Properties in the West Midlands

The West Midlands is not noted for its abundance of National Trust properties. Visitors tend to imagine an urban sprawl with little or no countryside and expect factories rather than magnificient manor houses. In fact, nothing could be further from the truth. The dark satanic mills have all but gone. Large areas of open countryside still exist in the West Midlands and there are some fine National Trust properties around the region.

In addition to the country houses and manors listed here there are open tracts of land owned and managed by the National Trust. Some of these include the Clent Hills in Worcestershire and the 'Long Mynd' in Shropshire. The National Trust also owns land at Wenlock Edge. We have attempted to list here the main National Trust properties. For an up to date and more comprehensive description you should pay a visit to the National Trust website which can be found at:
