The conducted tour starts at Frankwell, and ends at the weir in Castlefields.
It's easy and fun - simply join in on, a "Paddle into the Past" organised group in 2018,
for a unique historical tour of Shrewsbury around the Severn as it loops around the town.
You will be travelling with the river current, so there is very little effort to be expended in the paddling!
See where skirmishes and plunder took place during the Welsh wars:
- hear about evidence of the Vikings,
- see the relics of the river trade,
- listen to stories of past Shrewsbury floods,
- be appalled at the sight of real Victorian health-hazards, and more,
all with our archaeologist "tour guide with a difference" - Dr Nigel Baker.
