7. Shrewsbury
Shrewsbury is the county
town of Shropshire, in the West
Midlands region of England.
Shrewsbury is laying on the River
Severn.
Shrewsbury is a historic market town
with the town centre having a
largely unaltered medieval street
plan.
Today, lying 9 miles (14 km) east of
the Welsh border, Shrewsbury
serves as a cultural and commercial
centre for the ceremonial county and a large area of mid-Wales.
“Shrewsbury is picturesque. I quite like it” – Lida, teacher
Shrewsbury Castle is a red sandstone castle. It
stands on a hill in the neck of the meander of the River
Severn on which the town originally developed.
In 1138, King Stephen successfully besieged the castle
during the period known as The Anarchy.
.
Charles Darwin was born in Shrewsbury on the 12th of
February in 1809. Darwin was an English naturalist. He
established that all species of life have descended over time
from common ancestors, and proposed the scientific theory
that this branching pattern of evolution resulted from a
process that he called natural selection.
