Loynton

Loynton is a hamlet in Staffordshire on the A519 road near the villages of Norbury, and Woodseaves. It lies in the civil parish of Norbury.

Loynton Hall is believed to have been built around 1671 by the Higgins Burne family. Whilst there are very few houses and farms, the main feature of the hamlet is a nature reserve, Loynton Moss, which attracts ramblers regularly. The Shropshire Union Canal runs through the nature reserve.

There is a road bridge over the canal, carrying the A519 road, under which is reportedly the smallest telegraph pole with the most wires anywhere.
