often mispelt Bridgenorth, located
in Shropshire , UK. It is split into Low town,
on the edge of the River Severn and High Town these are uniquely connected by

On the very peak of High Town are the remains
of Bridgnorth Castle and Saint

centre of the High Street is the seventeenth century Bridgnorth Town Hall. Also located
in the High Street is the Northgate Museum,
while on branching streets visitors will find
the 1850s building known as Bishop
Percys House. |
On the way down from High Town to Low Town, past
a abundance of public houses, steam enthusiasts
will find the Severn Valley Railway that runs from Bridgnorth to Kidderminster. |
