Shropshire: border country, and estates that like being hard to find.

Shropshire is one of England's emptiest counties — the Shropshire Hills and the Long Mynd, the Welsh border, Ludlow with its castle and its food reputation, Shrewsbury in a loop of the Severn. The money is landed and discreet: country estates, converted farms and manor houses down single-track lanes, chosen precisely because they are difficult to happen upon and a long way from anywhere that keeps a response team.

So our Shropshire work is almost entirely residential and logistical: protective surveys for the estates and border houses, where a remote approach across open country is the whole vulnerability, secure driving on lanes that reward local knowledge, and close protection planned around honest regional response rather than a promise made from the motorway.
