| | About Shrewsbury: A Celebration |
 | | Shrewsbury is the proud county town of Shropshire, which is England's largest inland county. |
 | | As a successful historic market town situated at the heart of the county, Shrewsbury is ideally placed to continue in its time-honoured role as the commercial and administrative centre for the area, drawing in people from all over Shropshire and indeed from beyond the county borders for business, shopping, leisure and cultural pursuits. |
 | | Shrewsbury: A Celebration details this wealth of history: The Saxons, the Normans, Welsh invaders, the Black Death, the Battle of Shrewsbury, the Civil War, peace and prosperity, the golden age of coaching, the Victorian era and the coming of the railways and the impact of the 20th century. |
