three river terraces. A Shropshire Lad A. E. Housman wrote as part of his series of poems A Shropshire Lad: "In valleys of springs of rivers By Ony and Teme and Clun, The country for easy livers, The quietest under the sun... 'Tis a long way further than Knighton, A quieter place than Clun, Where doomsday may thunder and lighten And little 'twill matter to one."
