Handless

England

England

Handless occupies a quiet corner of Shropshire near the Welsh border, surrounded by villages like Asterton and Longmynd beneath the Long Mynd hills. Most visitors arrive via Shrewsbury or the A49 corridor through Church Stretton, then follow local roads westward. The area has about 15 public EV charging points serving this rural community. The village's distinctive name derives from medieval justice, where thieves faced the loss of their hands as punishment.
