Shifnal It seems that Shifnal was probably settled by the Saxons in the middle of the 7th century. Shifnal's real prosperity came at the end of the 18th century when it catered for the coaches and their passengers on the road from London to Shrewsbury and the Irish mail coaches on their way to Holyhead. Shifnal saw little further change until the 1960s when the rapid growth of estates around the town was accompanied by the clearance of some of the older buildings in the centre, particularly those between Cheapside and Bradford Street where the car park is today. web.onetel.com /~shifnalcouncil/zsihisty.htm   (751 words)
