Wem Rural

Wem Rural is a civil parish in North Shropshire, Shropshire, England.

It covers a large area around the town of Wem, which is a separate parish ("Wem Urban"). It covers the small hamlet or village of Edstaston.

The parish was formed in 1900 from the outer part of Wem, the inner part of which became the parish of Wem Urban in the Wem urban district. The parish was part of the Wem Rural District until 1967, when the rural district was abolished and became part of North Shropshire Rural District.
