  • We take the motorhome into Shrewsbury on a Sunday for a walk around Shrewsbury, somewhere we've never visited before. The car park we used is Frankwell Car Park and we parked at this location: what3words.com/party.glare.song Note that the park and ride doesn't run on a Sunday, otherwise we would have used that.

    We had 5 very happy years in Shropshire and off course Tilly is from Wem. We loved walking up Grinshill with great views from the top. Unfortunately I think the Inn there is now closed, was great when it was open.

    Hi Bob & Jenny the grave to Ebenzer Scrooge is located in St Chads church from the film A Christmas Carol with George C Scott, definitely worth a visit 👍

    Thank you for a great tour of Shrewsbury. If you do make it back there, try to visit Quarry Park and The Dingle Gardens. They hold The Shrewsbury Flower Show there each year. Poppy will love it. Hope her paw is better soon.

    I was living in Shrewsbury for many years but now live in nearby Telford. My first wife grew up on Little Oxon Farm which is where your campsite is now situated. My daughter and step daughter both live in Shrewsbury. I love the town and its quaint shops. Thank you for your video.

    We always drive through Shrewsbury but never get to stop and have a look, looks nice and historic, we were meant to be on a rally up near the prison but with mum not well not been out for a while. Nice to see they have a doggy friendly cafe. Hope Poppy's paw is ok or maybe she had mud on it.

    Thanks Bob and Jenny a really interesting video and we live about an hour from Shrewsbury in the West Midlands and actually my home town of Halesowen has a shared history as sir Roger de Montgomery earl of Shrewsbury was the lord of the manor and for centuries was a detached part of Shrewsbury!
    It’s such a lovely place and so historic and so much to see and do as you said one place we like to go is Attingham Park which is a NT at nearby Atcham and is well worth visiting for the house and grounds and also the British ironwork museum in between Shrewsbury and Oswestry is an interesting place! Hope poppys foot is ok and hope you both have warmed up after this cold snap!

    • @BobEarnshawMoHo
      @BobEarnshawMoHo  Год назад +2

      Just got back from Attingham. Had a nice walk round the Deer Park walk while Poppy and Jenny had a rest in the motorhome.

    Ah, my new hometown since May; I bought a place near the Abbey. I’ve lived on and off in Shropshire for about the last 45 years, but Shrewsbury is new to me. It’s such a nice size, everything is here that you’d want in a small town, and the architecture is just stunning. Love the place.

    I live near Shrewsbury being born and bred a Shropshire lad, it was interesting seeing my home.town through the eyes of a tourist. There's loads to see, but a few good places for you to find.. the Cathedral down town walls. The castle and the old prison near by. St chads, the Dingle and quarry park. Near to where you were staying it the old Shelton mental hospital, its homes now but still worth a look. After the garage you spotted cheapish fuel you missed Darwin's home that he grew up in. There's loads more but hope that helps.

  • @rogermadeley7413
    @rogermadeley7413 Год назад +1

    There is a good vets at "Old Potts way" if Poppy needs her paw checking over. There was some more of the Abbey over the road from the main building.....Thomas Telford went straight through it with the road instead of going around it for some reason!

    • @BobEarnshawMoHo
      @BobEarnshawMoHo  Год назад +1

      Oh, missed that thanks, that's where we noticed Poppy's paw trouble. We found at good vet at Copthrone thanks.

    @Wheres_wanda_wandering Год назад +1

    Really enjoyed this one. Shrewsbury is not too far from us so that car park would be handy if we wanted to do a day out. I would love to go to the prison as I’ve not done that before. Hope Poppy’s paw is ok. Take care Gill

    When we stayed there we caught the P&R bus twice. We enjoy a good walk so on the first occasion we walked in and bused back. The second time it was raining so we decided to bus it both ways. The return ticket was cheaper than the single. Thinking this was a mistake I queried it. The driver said the fares were deliberately structured that way because no one walks in from a P&R stop. I still marvel at that logic,
