Neighbourhood information

Shrewsbury The Original One-Off Located in a quiet backwater of the town with its black and white Tudor buildings and higgledy piggildy streets with names you want to say out loud, a river that scoops up the town in a loop with its eclectic mix of independent shops, restaurants and high street stores. A mix of the very old, the very new, the quirky and the one-offs. Located only seconds from The River Severn, The Quarry, Independent Shops, Bars and Restaurants.
