About

Bridgnorth West sits on the western side of Bridgnorth in Shropshire, taking in parts of the town and the village of Tasley. The area is defined by its position on the sandstone ridge above the River Severn and by a mix of housing, local shops and small workplaces. Local streets climb toward the High Town and slope down toward the low-lying riverside; footpaths and lanes connect neighbourhoods to the town centre and to nearby green spaces used for walking and weekend markets.

Community facilities include a parish hall, primary school and a handful of convenience services that serve residents of both town and village. A short walk toward the centre brings you to the cliff railway that links High Town and Low Town, and the remains of the medieval castle motte are visible on the ridge above. Regular bus links run through the western ward to other parts of Shropshire, while local lanes feed into the county road network for journeys further afield.
