Wishaw, Warwickshire
Wishaw is also the home of Wishaw Country Sports, a diverse venue that offers a variety of activities such as shooting, blindfold driving and tractor driving. It also features a converted farm building which is now used as a luxury event venue, offering birthdays, weddings and other functions upon request. Wishaw is located about one mile north of the village of Curdworth and about three miles east of the town of Sutton Coldfield, in the West Midlands. In 2003, residents claimed that a mobile phone mast at the centre of the village was the cause of a local cancer cluster. The mast was felled by unknown vandals in November 2003 and subsequent pressure against plans to replace it led operator T-Mobile to abandon the site.
