About Wem
Wem is a small market town and is the administrative centre of North Shropshire district. It has a railway station - Wem railway station. Only a few miles south of the town is the county town of Shropshire, Shrewsbury. North Shropshire District Council have their headquarters at Edinburgh House, in the centre of Wem. The civil parish which constitutes the town is Wem Urban.
Within the town the Sweet Pea was first born, under the name the Eckford Sweet Pea, after its inventor, nursery-man Henry Eckford. He first introduced a variety of the sweet pea in 1882, and set up in Wem in 1888, developing and producing many varieties. There is a road to signify the Eckford name, called Eckford Park (within Wem). Each year, the Eckford Sweet Pea Society of Wem hold a Sweet Pea Show. In Victorian times, the town was known as "Wem, where the sweet peas grow". Wem is twinned with the town Fismes (pronounced /fiːmz/ or "feems"), in France, which also has its own road in Wem, called Fismes Way. The River Roden flows to the south of the town. Each year Wem holds a carnival on the first Saturday of September.
