Location: Quayside

Bridgnorth was once one of England’s most important inland ports. In 1756, there were 75 sailing vessels registered here. Bridgnorth had at least three boat-builders. The Severn trows were usually 60ft. (18.3m.) long by 14ft. (4.3m.); but one, built here in 1850, was 96ft. long (29m.). The river trade died out after the railway arrived in 1862.

Historians think that there might have been a bridge here in the 10th century, but it was certainly here in 1272, when there was a fight recorded on Bridgnorth Bridge between two Broseley men. The bridge you see now has been much altered over the years and, in a previous form, had a gatehouse, houses and a chapel on it.

Sponsor: Perry & Phillips Funeral Directors
