A Brief Look At Bridgnorth
The town of Bridgnorth is full of
heritage as well as being an attractive ancient market town nestling in the
Severn Valley. The town is divided into two distinct parts, High Town
overlooking the river Severn and Low Town on the banks of the river Severn.
There are many old and interesting streets and steps connecting the two and
also the steepest funicular railway in the country.
In High Town can be found the remains of Bridgnorth Castle, the ancient
North Gate, the Old Town Hall, The Old Grammar School, St Leonard's Church
and Richard's Baxter House. There is also a very interesting and scenic
cliff top walk that takes you past St Mary's church and the
Theatre-on-the-Steps.
In Low Town you can enjoy scenic walks along the banks of the river
Severn, view Lavington's Hole or take a trip on the world famous Severn
Valley Steam Railway. Bishop Percy's House and Cartway are other old
historical attractions.
There are many unique shops to Bridgnorth with antiques, curios and
speciality craft shops in abundance. The Golden Lion is perfectly
positioned to enjoy all of these attractions.
