Four Crosses, the gateway to the Shropshire and Powys countryside.

Four Crosses is a rural village in Powys, situated on the border of Shropshire. The village offers a range of facilities including a medical centre, veterinary surgery, garage, petrol station, a takeaway restaurant and a primary school; "Llandysillio Church of Wales School". Secondary schools nearby are Llanfyllin High School and Welshpool High School. Both of which are bilingual schools.

The local area offers many tourist attractions, with Four Crosses being on the Offas Dyke path, a 177 mile route following the remnants of Offas Dyke, an earth work built in the late 8th century following orders of King Offa of Mercia. Hence the name for our development, Kings Acre.

There is much to explore locally, not only is the village itself filled with lots of things to do, there are excellent road links with the A483 less than half a mile away. Local market towns are close by with Oswestry & Welshpool both approximately 8 miles away and Shrewsbury the county town of Shropshire, is approximately 15 miles. These towns are steeped in history. There is a regular bus service through Four Crosses to Welshpool, Oswestry, and Machynlleth. Four Crosses is a fantastic location for those who need amenities close by but also provides a gateway to the Shropshire and Powys countryside.
