What an amazing place to spend a wet and windy day during the school half term holiday. All staff were friendly, polite and knowledgeable. We had a superb day with our 9 year old daughter. Lots for children to do. The food in the cafe was delicious - very fresh sandwiches. Again, the staff were polite and friendly. Free to get in - amazing in this day and age!! £5 for the car park and a suggested donation of £5 in the museum. Thank you to all.

For what is in essence the town park to be one of the highest rated attractions for any town on Trip Advisor it must be something special, but in this case it is. The Quarry, where Percy Thrower was Parks Superintendent for nearly thirty years, is a superb open space which not only contains the excellent Dingle garden, but the beautiful rows of Lime trees that form a central avenue between the Hercules statue and Percy Throwers house, the Quarry lodge, with the excellent St Chads Church as a back drop, and also line the River Severn walkway from the Porthill footbridge all the way to the Greyfriars footbridge. The Dingle is truly superb and all I can say is do not to miss this and walk the wonderful Lime paths when you visit Shrewsbury.

The biggest display of decorative metalwork in the UK. Featuring live work from the some of the best artists and blacksmiths in the country. The Centre created the world renowned "Spoon Gorilla" made from over 40,000 donated spoons, as seen on the BBC. The Centre was officially opened to visitors in 2014 by HRH Prince Michael of Kent. Donations are welcome for Hope House Children's Hospice. Most recent projects include the "Knife Angel" made from over 100,000 weapons which have been removed from the streets of the United Kingdom, working with national police forces, families affected by knife crime and community action groups to ensure people think twice before carrying a blade.

Wow! What a hidden gem in the countryside. Beautiful backdrop to the outside sculptures which you can hire a buggy and go around if you don't fancy walking. The inside sculptures are placed all over, dont forget to look up too! Great Christmas area for gifts and the tea room entices you with the smells of fresh coffee and warm scones when you walk in. Fantastic place to visit, I will be back for more... plenty of parking, very friendly and informative team of staff with a selection of outside garden pots and ornaments for sale so you can take something home too.

Good insight to the foundations of our Industrial Age and daily life for people of the time. Victorian village was well done with the actors role playing very well staff and volunteers very friendly and helpful in spite of current times and extra pressures. Glad we came to discover this part of the history and the gorge and bridge too.
