Perched high on a red sandstone ridge, Bridgnorth is an ancient market town overlooking the River Severn. Divided into two levels, High Town and Low Town, Bridgnorth is linked by the country's steepest and shortest inland railway.

Dominating the town is one of the few stilted Town Halls still remaining. Built during the 17th century, this half timbered building straddles the High Street where each Saturday an open air market is held. Surrounded by beautiful countryside, this historic market town bustling with activity and steeped in intrigue is undoubtedly the Jewel of the Severn.
