The small town of Bishop's Castle is to the south. A monastery existed here c. 1200, before moving to Chirbury in Shropshire by 1227. Apothecary and chronicler Oliver Mathews (–c. 1618), the first historian of Shrewsbury, retired to live at Snead. The small St Mary's Church of Snead is uniquely positioned on the banks of the River Camlad.

The Priory was later moved to Chirbury. Not much larger than a chapel, the church has a small belfry, where medieval bells have recently been restored to ...
