The
mystery of where this is has been solved by Pam Willing as "the cottage was
the home of my great-grandparents, Thomas and Mary Anne Mansell. The cottage
is on the right-hand side as you approach Pulverbatch from Shrewsbury. It was
originally called 'Lowe Cottage' but my great-grandparents changed the name to
'Church View' when they moved there (sometime between 1901 and 1909). When the
family had a new bungalow built in the 1930’s they named the new property
'Church View' and in recent years their former home has gone under the name
'Wren Cottage'. Brook Cottages; the low buildings on the right were one of the
two smithys in the village. (See the <a href=
