SAT
Day Trip Highlights
● Visit the market town of Shrewsbury.
● Enjoy a cruise along the picturesque River Severn.
Join us on a day trip to the market town of Shrewsbury
with its Tudor houses and Medieval Castle. The town
centre is almost an island, encircled by the River
Severn and home to more than 600 historic buildings
including the church where Charles Darwin, who was
born in Shrewsbury, was baptised. The intriguingly
named Wyle Cop is rumoured to have the longest run
of independent shops and is part of the vibrant town
centre.
We will also enjoy a scenic cruise along the River
Severn onboard the Sabrina, a triple-decked boat. See
the town from a different perspective with an
interesting commentary, and tea/coffee and biscuits
provided.
