For what is in essence the town park to be one of the highest rated attractions for any town on Trip Advisor it must be something special, but in this case it is. The Quarry, where Percy Thrower was Parks Superintendent for nearly thirty years, is a superb open space which not only contains the excellent Dingle garden, but the beautiful rows of Lime trees that form a central avenue between the Hercules statue and Percy Throwers house, the Quarry lodge, with the excellent St Chads Church as a back drop, and also line the River Severn walkway from the Porthill footbridge all the way to the Greyfriars footbridge. The Dingle is truly superb and all I can say is do not to miss this and walk the wonderful Lime paths when you visit Shrewsbury.

Had a lovely 1 hour pony trek with my 6 year old son. The staff were really friendly & great with me as a very nervous completely inexperienced rider. Gemma even walked alongside me instead of riding her own horse because of my nerves. I was no need to be anxious, Mr Kash was very well behaved except when he was trying to have cheeky snacks along the way ha! Thoroughly recommend, the girls were great with my little boy too.
