Shrewsbury Gateway to Wales

Tudor and Jacobean motifs in abundance distinguish Shrewsbury's grand railway station of 1848, once a major confluence of the Great Western and London & North Western (later LMS) railway networks, and providing key links to all corners of Wales. The visionary architect was a local man, Thomas Mainwaring Penson. Shrewsbury station has been Grade II listed since 1969.
