Formed during the turbulent geology of the Pre-Cambrian area, it is shaped and scarred by deep canyons such as the Carding Mill Valley . Best known for its miles of challenging walks and hikes, it features various popular landmarks. One of the best of these is the Lightspout Waterfall, located just a short walk from the market town of Church Stretton in the Carding Mill Valley.
