Tilstock is a quiet village in the civil parish of Whitchurch Rural, sitting between Whitchurch to the north and Prees Higher Heath to the south. It is the kind of North Shropshire village that sits comfortably within the agricultural landscape — farmhouses, lanes, fields, and a pace of life that has not changed dramatically in decades.

We visit clients in Tilstock regularly. The village sits within easy reach of our Whitchurch base, and our locally-employed carers know this part of the area well. The nearby Tilstock Airfield — home to Shropshire Aero Club — is one of those distinctly local landmarks that carers and clients have in common.

About Tilstock

Tilstock is within the Whitchurch Rural civil parish, which also includes the villages of Ash, Prees Heath, and Broughall. The area is characterised by open farmland, quiet lanes, and the particular rural self-sufficiency of communities that have always been a little off the main road.

not want to go into residential care.”
