Shrewsbury Through Time
This fascinating selection of photographs traces some of the many ways in which Shrewsbury has changed and developed over the last century.
Portrait of Shrewsbury
Shrewsbury is the County Town of Shropshire and one of England¿s finest medieval and Tudor towns. It has the great advantage of being almost completely surrounded by the River Severn, and this has protected the town throughout the ages from assault and from undue development. As a result Shrewsbury has retained much of its charm and many of its old buildings. There are no fewer than 660 listed buildings within the loop of the river ¿ one of the highest concentrations in the country. This book of superb images from acclaimed locally-based photographer Robin Jukes-Hughes, begins with a journey down the picturesque River Severn. It goes on to look at some of the peerless buildings from the me...

Lost Shrewsbury

Beyond the Bridges
Shrewsbury is an archetypal 'city on a hill', the spires and towers of its churches crowning a sandstone bluff that is almost encircled by a horseshoe bend of the River Severn. Suburbs began to grow beyond the town's medieval limits in the mid-18th century. The elegant villas of attorneys were followed by imposing terraces, cluster houses for workers at the Ditherington flax mill, freehold land society estates, terraces occupied by railwaymen, and, in the 20th century, by 'homes fit for heroes' - the 'Dunroamin'-style estates and 'prefabs'. Shrewsbury is an ideal subject for the study of suburbs, being large enough to offer interesting variation, but small enough to have retained most of its suburban heritage.
Lost Lines of England and Wales
Straddling the border between England and Wales, the railway linking Shrewsbury to Chester has been serving the communities along its length since 1848, as well as being, for over a century, a key component of the Great Western Railway's main line from the Mersey to London. It still remains busy with passenger trains and some freight, so it is not lost in the conventional sense, however, this pictorial journey along what remains an attractive and scenic line focuses on its heyday in the age of steam hauled-trains. Whilst much of the infrastructure of the steam age has been swept away, the line is still busy and remains an important transport link.
