Wenlock Priory From the Air: Medieval Power to Ruin with DJI drone views

I filmed this in beautiful sunshine, May 25, but never got around to editing it until now.

Hidden in the Shropshire countryside, the ruins of Wenlock Priory tell a remarkable story of faith, wealth, controversy, and survival.

In this video, we explore the history of Wenlock Priory and the historic town of Much Wenlock, using drone footage, ground-level filming, and historically informed visual reconstructions to bring the site’s past to life.
