Region: A E Housman once wrote that Shropshire was “the quietest place under the sun” and today the county remains something of a rural idyll, recognised as one of the least crowded and most peaceful regions in England.

Town: Bridgnorth is divided into two distinct halves: the High Town and the Low Town, which are separated by the town's red sandstone ridge. The two halves are connected by meandering alleys and flights of steps, or there is always the steep funicular railway, permitting the weary visitor to witness what Charles I deemed "the loveliest vista in all my kingdom". A bustling Saturday street market provides ample opportunity to tour the town and investigate the castle remains, which lean more than the Leaning Tower of Pisa!
