Shrewsbury Library is a busy lending library housed in a Grade I listed building situated on Castle Gates near Shrewsbury Castle. The site was the home of Shrewsbury School from 1550 until 1882. The buildings were handed over to the town in 1882 and a free library and museum were opened by in 1885. Charles Darwin was taught here and his statue still sits proudly in the front courtyard.

This is a fascinating, tiny, 12th Century (in parts) church, with a beautiful setting by the River Seven and the stone Atcham Bridge. If I may quote the well-drafted guide (by the north door), "Pick 'em and patch 'em say the six bells of Atcham" - Bells have been rung here since the 16th Century. Worth a look, as are so many details in this lovely place.
