My major criticism of Shrewsbury is a large portion of pompous people in the area I'm afraid. After living in cities my whole life I moved to the area for work. Understandably I'm used to a different type of area so it wasn't for me at first. I like the town more now but it still has a lot of sticking points. Sorry to stereotype but ...

We recently enjoyed an enjoyable weekend away in Shrewsbury visiting frineds, it is a nice rather quaint market town which is located on a hill so you can expect a couple of steep walks in places as you explore the town. A beautiful river always makes a town more attractive in my opinion and the River Seven certainly improves ... Read the complete review

Having already read some fantastic reviews on the town of my birth, I wasn't entirely sure if there was much point in me adding my two penneth. But having spent the first 18 informative years of my life growing up there, I decided I perhaps do have enough Shrewsbury trivia to warrant an alternative guide to Shropshire's county town. Of ...

Before I moved from the South East, the border towns of Shrewsbury, Chester, Ludlow were just names on a map. If this is the case for you it needs putting right. All three are worth visiting and here I am going try and tempt you to consider Shrewsbury. So is it worth it? YES. It's a charming market town nestled ... Read the complete review

Surely, Shrewsbury is one of the most pleasant towns in England. I’m very fond of all the towns situated along the marches bordering Wales. From Chester in the north to Chepstow in the south there are some beautiful places to visit, Oswestry, Ludlow, Hereford and Monmouth are all regular haunts, but to my mind ...

Cadfael was based here,and it isn't easy to rememebr the past as you ... Read the complete review

The trouble with Shrewsbury is ,its to easy to miss now the M54 and ring road carry those heading for Mid Wales away from this quaint,old county Town.. And for those who love, or have an interest in timber framed buildings Shrewsbury should not be by-passed.. The place is steeped in history..With the ancient Abbey walls and ruins ...

The home town of Darwin, is in fact, Shrewsbury. Located close to Telfore industrial town & is 1 of the smallest town in tht UK. It's quite beautiful & also self-sufficient in many ways though... Not many knew this place after all but here it is, the little town. People do live in the country side & so is such a town ... Read the complete review
