Latest Warnings:

PLEASE BE AWARE

We have received an email from one of our members about a man called Robert Martin, who stayed in Much Wenlock last week after visiting Much Wenlock Visitor Information Centre to ask about accommodation. The cheque he paid with was returned after he put a ‘stop’ to it. He is in his 40s, scruffily dressed & with a strong Geordie accent & surly manner, he says he is a construction company owner and drives a Volvo, registration no. H547 FRD.

Beware Nova ChannelAg are doing the rounds again seeking entries in their "Tourist Directory". They are based in Switzerland and will do their best to get you to part with 989 euros. This could also amount to an annual payment for 3 years if you don't read the small print!
