Percentages are CQC scores from its newer way of assessing homes. ?
CQC scored 33 standards: 31 good, 2 below good. Use “See the breakdown” on each key question for its standards. ?
CQC hasn't inspected this home for more than 5 years. It re-inspects based on risk, so an old rating doesn't count against a home on this site, but it may not reflect the home today. ?
Bondcare (London) Limited runs Meadowbrook Care Home, a nursing home in Croesoswallt, Shropshire with room for 69 residents. It is registered to care for older people, people with dementia, younger adults, people with a physical disability and people with mental health needs. Most homes in Shropshire are smaller: the median there is 29 beds.
It is one of 17 homes run by Bondcare (London) Limited. 15 of those with a rating are Good or Outstanding. Of the 5 closest rated homes, none is rated above it. Food hygiene inspectors scored the kitchen 5 out of 5 in October 2026. 91% of homes in Shropshire also score 5. Across Shropshire, 80% of rated homes are Good or Outstanding, against 82% for England.
In September 2025, CQC gave it Good overall, and Good for each of the five key questions too. It was also rated Good at the inspection before, in October 2023. The typical rating in Shropshire is about 7 years old, so this one is fairly recent. CQC found some shortfalls in “safe environments”, one of 2 standards out of 33 scored below good.
