Thank you so much, Alan. You're a star, too. :) These coffee places get everywhere!
Like my first novel set in Shrewsbury, too, I'm keen to get my historical facts correct.

Shropshire / Where were courts in Shrewsbury in 1840.

Hi, I'm currently conducting research for a novel and I'm in need of your expertise. I'm trying to locate the court of law that would have been held in Shrewsbury in 1840.
Unfortunately, I couldn't find an answer on Google or the many books I have about Shrewsbury.
Would it have been a county court or a magistrates court? or assizes?


I think there was a court held in the old market hall in the square once but doesn't fit with my date. The crime is child neglect /possible murder.
Thank you so much for any insight.

Hi SMJ, Thank you for your reply. My novel is set from 1898 to 1915 and then in the modern day. My brother went to the Wakeman school. The story is set around Hills Lane in town and around Whitehall Street near the Abbey Church.
best wishes

Thank you for replying. No, my novel is set in the town centre of Shrewsbury and around the Abbey Church. Funny enough, I have a nephew who lives in Astley.

Shropshire / A Shrewsbury novel

HI there.
I Have written a novel inspired by my family history in Shrewsbury.
Anyone who lives in the town might be interested in reading it. Various places in the town are mentioned. I started writing it in 2018 but had a stroke in 2021, which delayed my writing. I am still recovering, but I am pleased to say it is available on Amazon now. There is life after a stroke!

Title.....Number 81 by Christine Bhasin.

Best wishes
