Home town tour - Shrewsbury, UK
Ok, so here's some shots I took on Friday as spring is getting underway here in Shrewsbury
Shrewsbury is a town of around 75,000 inhabitants, some 45 miles west of Birmingham, 60 miles south of Manchester and 170 miles northwest of London. Very close to the border of Wales which is less than 10 miles further west.
Starting with the area many visitors might see first, around the train station and the castle and town library next to it. The library used to be a school until the mid 19th century, the young Charles Darwin was educated there and now has a statue outside the entrance.
