Loynton

Loynton

Loynton is a hamlet on the A519 near the villages of Norbury, and Woodseaves in Staffordshire, England.

Whilst there are very few houses and farms, the main feature of the hamlet is a nature reserve, Loynton Moss, which attracts ramblers regularly. Through the nature reserve runs the Shropshire Union Canal.

There is a road bridge over the canal, carrying the A519, under which is reportedly the smallest telegraph pole with the most wires anywhere.
