This is a large park just at the side of Shrewsbury Town centre, had not planed to go here but just thought it would be nice to have a walk round on our way up to St Chads Church. Glad we did, Plenty of swings and things if you have kids, but we found the bit called the Dingle the... More

I have never been to Shrewsbury before as my travels have never taken me this way when travelling down to Devon from the north West. However we avoided the M6 due to delays and went down the A49, The fact that it was a rare sunny warm day was also a factor. We did not intend to stop off at... More

As a Shrewsbury lass I could be biased but Shrewsbury has a lovely park right by the River Severn. Lots to do for children, including a play park, paddling pool and don't forget exploring the sunken garden 'The Dingle'. Wonderful space to walk, cycle and watch rowers from Shrewsbury Rowing club. Also the site of the Shrewsbury Flower Show in... More

A well kept park with very pleasant surroundings. Plenty of room for an energetic springer spaniel to tire herself out.

I loved coming here as a kid, but flooding, lack of summer weather, rise in number of teenagers visiting and vandalism has resulted in it going downhill somewhat!
