In 1870-72, John Marius Wilson's Imperial Gazetteer of England and Wales described Westhope like this:
WESTHOPE, a chapelry in Diddlebury parish, Salop; under Wenlock Edge, 3¼ miles NE of Craven-Arms r. station, and 5 S by E of Church-Stretton. Post town, Diddlebury, under Bromfield, Salop. The statistics are returned with the parish. The living is a donative, annexed to Diddlebury.
Westhope is now part of SHROPSHIRE Unitary Authority. Click here for graphs and data of how SHROPSHIRE has changed over two centuries. For statistics about Westhope itself, go to Statistics.
