About Meadowlands

Meadowlands is focused on a part of Craven Arms (once know as Newton Township) covering the area including the Rice Meadows, Halford, The Rough and the Shropshire Hills Discovery Centre. These images were taken in 2024.

Main image: A rusting metal Footbridge over the River Onny – that follows the path of an older track and ford crossing – between Newington and Halford.

(All images have been made with a vintage 58mm Helios 44-2 f2 lens – coincidentally, first released around the year I was born – they were all shot ‘wide open’ at an aperture of f2 and, unusually for me, in colour)
