History
The Town Walls Tower is the very last remaining medieval watchtower surviving on what were once the medieval fortified, defensive walls of Shrewsbury. The tower dates from the 14th century, a time when the town was subject to attacks from the Welsh and like Shrewsbury Castle the tower was a means of observing the land around the town and the River Severn.
