Shrewsbury sits gracefully on a loop of the River Severn, right in the heart of Shropshire. It's one of those places where you can feel the history the moment you arrive. The narrow medieval streets, timber-framed buildings and old-world charm are balanced perfectly with a lively town centre full of shops, cafés and restaurants. With its pretty parks, riverside walks and strong sense of community, it's a town that manages to be both bustling and peaceful at the same time.

The town's history stretches back over a thousand years, with its origins as a Saxon settlement before growing into an important medieval trading centre. Shrewsbury Castle, built by the Normans, still stands proudly near the station. The town played a role in the Wars of the Roses and was a major player in the wool trade for centuries. Charles Darwin was born here in 1809, and the town is still very proud of its most famous son. Today, Shrewsbury has a population of around 77,000, and while much of its medieval layout remains, it's grown into a modern county town with all the facilities you'd expect.

There's loads to see and do in Shrewsbury itself. The Quarry Park is perfect for a stroll, especially the Dingle Gardens, which bloom beautifully throughout the seasons. Shrewsbury Castle and Shrewsbury Museum and Art Gallery offer a great insight into the town's past, while St Mary's Church and Shrewsbury Abbey showcase stunning architecture and rich history. The riverside paths are popular for walking and cycling, and boat trips along the Severn offer a different view of the town. Just outside town, National Trust's Attingham Park offers grand hallways, deer parks and wide open spaces for walking. English Heritage's Wroxeter Roman City gives a glimpse of Roman life with well-preserved ruins to explore.

The wider Shropshire area is packed with attractions. The Ironbridge Gorge, often called the birthplace of the Industrial Revolution, has several museums that tell the story of how industry shaped the modern world. Ludlow, with its castle and renowned food scene, is always worth a visit. The Shropshire Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty offers stunning landscapes, whether you're climbing The Wrekin or wandering across the Long Mynd. Stokesay Castle, one of England's best-preserved fortified manor houses, sits just down the A49, and Much Wenlock is full of charm with its links to the early modern Olympic Games.

Shrewsbury's transport links make it easy to reach. The A5 bypass circles the town, linking quickly to the M54, which heads into the West Midlands. The A49 connects north and south through the county. Shrewsbury railway station sits right in the centre, with regular trains to Birmingham, Manchester, Cardiff, London and further afield. The nearest major airport is Birmingham, around an hour's drive away, though Manchester and Liverpool airports aren't much further. Buses serve many of the nearby towns and villages, though driving gives you the most flexibility for exploring the countryside.

Shropshire itself is a county that's never in a rush to shout about itself. It's full of quiet beauty, rich history and friendly people. From ancient hillforts to grand stately homes, charming market towns to rolling hills, it's one of those places that stays with you long after you leave. The people here are proud of their patch, always happy to share it with visitors who appreciate its pace and character.
