Wrockwardine is a small historic parish set on a ridge within the borough of Telford and Wrekin in Shropshire, England. Its elevated position gives pleasant views across the Shropshire Plain, and it sits within easy reach of the modern town of Telford and the industrial heritage of Ironbridge.
The area retains a strong village character with agricultural roots, a historic parish church and several listed buildings, while also functioning in part as a commuter hinterland for nearby towns. Local life centres on village institutions such as the church, village hall and pubs, and the surrounding lanes and footpaths make it popular with walkers and those seeking a quieter slice of rural Shropshire.
