We've tightened what earns a Pursue. A home now needs a published valuation, a strategy that still makes money after real running costs and lender stress tests, and no listing problems that would stop a mortgage. You'll see fewer Pursues, and each one has been checked harder.

Council Tax Band: G Local Authority: Shropshire Council Starstile Meadows is a small development of just seven properties set off Gravel Hill, just a short distance from all that historic Ludlow has to offer.
Shops, Doctors and schools are in close proximity along with easy access to the train station running north to Shrewsbury and south to Hereford.
