Here's what the travel experts said about Shrewsbury:
"With its meandering streets and blush-sandstone castle wrapped in a loop of the Severn, Shropshire's compact county town is ideal for wandering and window shopping. The covered market was voted the country's best in
2024. But it's hard to beat Wyle Cop, a curving, climbing high street lined with 39 listed buildings, ranging from medieval half-timbered to Victorian ornate."
Shrewsbury is number one in The Telegraph list of Britain's best high streets!❤️
