Doors 355 – Doors of Shrewsbury (part V) – April 2025
It is my wife’s birthday today, which is a special family moment and means that I will be necessarily brief for today’s post.
After a brief hiatus last week, when I ran out of time to prepare some Shrewbury doors, the series continues with a mixed selection this week, from the town steeped in history. I hope you enjoy this selection of doors and views:












When I took the photographs of the bridge, I hadn’t realised until afterwards that a lost soul was being talked away from sitting on the edge of the bridge by a police officer. In my original image (much higher resolution than here) I can see the pair. I am happy to report that the ‘jumper’ was safely talked away from the bridge, and I hope received the care and attention he needed.
More to come next time. Have a great, and in the UK, Bank Holiday weekend.
If you have made it this far, you probably like doors, and you really ought to take a look at the No Facilities blog by Dan Anton who has taken over the hosting of Thursday Doors from Norm 2.0 blog. Links to more doorscursions can be found in the comments section of Dan Anton’s weekly Thursday Doors post and his Sunday recap.

Happy Birthday Mrs Scooj . . . 😃

I agree, the light behind that window gave it something extra.

These are great photos. I love the bridge and the ghost door. I’m glad the despondent soul was talked away from the edge, and I hope he does get the care he needs.
Happy birthday to Mrs. Scooj. I hope she (and you) have a great day and weekend.

Great gallery, Stephen. The first door looks mysterious with the light at the end great capture.
The timber frame building on Wyle Cop is beautiful. I looks like something out of a movie. Great selection. Thank you for this continued journey in Shrewsbury.

Wait, a water guage? Does the water actually rise that much? I hope not. Loved the doors.

Yes, the Severn is well known for flooding and from time to time the water really does get that high, flooding river side properties.

That…is unreal. I’m amazed at how high that is.
