Pant, Shropshire

Pant, Shropshire

Pant is a village in Shropshire, England. It lies in the borough of Oswestry and is near to the border with Wales. Pant means 'hollow' in Welsh which fits because it was mined for limestone many years ago.

Nearby is Llanymynech Golf Club, which straddles the English/Welsh border, where Ian Woosnam learnt to play.

The Cambrian Railways Trust are restoring the railway line between Pant and Llynclys for use as a heritage railway. There are plans for a halt at Penygarreg Lane.
