Bear Steps Art Gallery

Runs from Sunday, September 09 to Saturday, September 22.

The exhibition ‘Shrewsbury and the Severn: An Evolution of Trade’ is a beginners introduction to the history of Shrewsbury and its relationship with the River Severn.

The exhibition takes you from Ninth to Nineteenth Century, briefly exploring important themes and periods relating to the development of the trade in the town. From its inception in the early Middle Ages to its effective end at the peak of the Victorian Era, Shrewsbury’s connection with the River Severn was a crucial part in the growth of the town and the consolidation of its position as a Shire capital.

However, it is also important to look back to its Saxon and Norman roots as a fortified mint town and to its more recent late Victorian past as a county market town after the disappearance of the river trade as it was. The river trade has tied Shrewsbury to national historical processes like the Reformation and Industrial Revolution and has produced an incredible heritage which still stands today.

The exhibition is being displayed upstairs in the Link Room at Bear Steps Art Gallery between 9th and 22nd September. It is open from 10-4 daily and admission is free.
