Take a rare opportunity to step behind the door that hundreds of local people walk past every day on this special tour of Town Walls Tower.

Built in the fourteenth century to provide protection against Wales. Delve into the history of the tower on one of our pre-booked, timed tours.

The Town Walls tower has recently become one of the National Trust's newest holiday cottages and this adds a completely different flavour to the tour. 

The history of the building is still very evident making this quirky cottage definitely worth a sneaky peek.  All tours are pre-booked and National Trust Members must produce their cards on arrival. Tours start promptly as space inside the tower is very limited, so late arrivals may not be able to be accommodated.

Please note:

• Meet at the Town Walls Tower - Shrewsbury. Please be aware that there is no parking at Town Walls Tower. Public pay and display car parks are available around Shrewsbury.
• Town Walls Tower is a small property, with narrow rooms and staircases. Due to its small size, entry is by tour only, limited to five places on each one. 
• Town Walls tower is made up of small rooms, with low ceilings. There is a steep staircase to the upper floors of the tower and steps up to the front door.
• Due to the size of the tower, all children must be closely supervised at all times. There is no access or storage for buggies and we recommend the tour for those over 10 years.
• National Trust Members should book a free ticket in advance and bring their membership card.
