A greeting at the door, a very interesting description of the history and well-laid-out displays made this an usually interesting visit.

It is old and beautiful. It has flooded out four times in its history and it's overwhelming when you see a boat pictured in the middle of the church during one of the floods! A very historical abbey and allow yourself enough time to walk around and view all of the information regarding it.

Henry the VIII has a lot to answer to here, what is left is very interesting lots of old tombs and head stone from long ago. Nice stained windows some are not that old but still nice, it just makes me wonder how they ever built them all those years ago, well worth a look round.

A nice place to visit as a one off Good place if you like religion, history and or architecture Nice people there too, but once you've seen it youve seen it as not much new there so not worth going back

I only live round the corner and used to go with the family all the time, it was great service and great value for money but now I would not step foot inside.

Remember the stories of Ellis Peters and brother Cadfael? This building is so stunning and is not to be missed. Sometimes we are all drawn to having a couple minutes of peace and contemplation away from the hussle and bussle of modern day life.

A lady welcomed us and asked if we were interested in her telling us a bit about the abbey's history. She was excellent and spoke in the first person about e.g. Henry 8's men destoying our monastic buildings. She also pointed out the significant features of the stained glass windows.

This is steeped with history, the architecture is varied, the old village which surrounds it is for the best part intact. Look out for the flood marks inside the abbey and the old pictures depicting the last great Shrewsbury flood. I am glad I missed that one.

A very interesting place to visit as it gives the visitor a very thorough b/ground into not only the religious history of the area but the general history of this area of England. We found it very interesting
