WEM
Wem is a North Shropshire Market Town with a rich history and a connection with Sweet Peas
This North Shropshire market town originated as a Saxon settlement. Wem has a selection of small shops offering both residents and visitors alike a warm welcome, friendly service and a diverse range of products, all served at a leisurely pace.
Wem is now the home of the modern Sweet Pea which was developed by Henry Eckford, the 19th Century nurseryman. Every year Eckford’s contribution to gardening is celebrated at the Sweet Pea Show which, along with the annual carnival, brings a riot of colour to the town.
