Market Drayton
Market Drayton is a small market town in north Shropshire in England. The town is located on the River Tern, between Shrewsbury and Stoke-on-Trent, and was previously referred to as Drayton in Hales from around 1868 and earlier simply as 'Drayton' around 1695. Market Drayton is on the Shropshire Union Canal and on Regional Cycle Route 75. The A53 road by-passes the town. The counties of Staffordshire and Cheshire are both adjacent. In accordance with the 2011 Census, the town has a permanent population of around 11773 people. In 1245, King Henry III gave a charter for a weekly Wednesday market, giving the town its up to date name. The market continues to be convened every Wednesday. There are a number of noteworthy monuments in the town. These feature Pell Wall Hall, Adderley Hall, Buntingsdale Hall, Salisbury Hill, Tyrley Locks on the Shropshire Union Canal and the Thomas Telford designed aqueduct. Fordhall Farm has 140 acres (0.57 km2) of community-owned natural farmland located off the A53 in between the Müller and Tern Hill roundabouts. The farm path is open to the general public during farm shop opening hours, and on the path is the location of Fordhall Castle, an ancient motte and bailey structure which looks over the River Tern valley. Market Drayton has often been a hotbed for musical 'talent', producing a variety of bands who have actually advanced on to attain national acclaim. In 1981, the town boasted the '2nd finest' school rock band in the nation, TSB National School Band runners up, Monovision. At the exact same time, the local youth club were represented by the Platinum Needles in the NAYC Opportunity Rocks competition final.
