Hodnet is a village and civil parish in Shropshire, England. To the northeast of the village is the town of Market Drayton.
Hodnet's name has Celtic origins derived from the Welsh hawdd meaning pleasant or peaceful and nant, a glen or valley in Old Welsh. Hodnet was recorded in the Domesday Book as Odenett.
Evidence of a Bronze Age burial site was discovered during the construction of the by-pass in 2002.
The Anglo-Saxon settlement which had a chapel was the centre of Odenet, a royal manor belonging to Edward the Confessor and held by Roger de Montgomery who supported William the Conqueror after 1066. Baldwin de Hodenet built the motte and bailey castle in around 1082 possibly on a moated mound from earlier times. The timber castle was rebuilt in sandstone around 1196 and burned down in 1264. Hodnet Castle was mentioned in a document of 1223. Odo de Hodnet was granted the right to hold a weekly fair and an annual market by Henry III in the mid-13th century and the village grew to the north and east of the castle by the 12th-century church.

What can I do to make you go away?
You can’t, ’cause I’m gonna stay!
Whenever you leave you’re always coming back.
Prepare for a love attack.
You don’t know what to do,
You’re lost in the wind, (in the wind)
You’re flying alone, in the sky above,
Can’t find love.

I must be dreaming, can’t you see,
Dreaming of you and me,

Thinking, thinking of you and me.
Waiting to be free,
Free at last,
You have to spin in the, spin in the air.
