Shropshire Archives
Shropshire Archives is the archives and local studies service for the historic county of Shropshire, which includes the Borough of Telford and Wrekin.

The holdings of the archives are held on 5 ½ miles of shelving and includes local material from 12th century charters right up to yesterday’s Shropshire Star.

The archives are funded by Shropshire Council and the Borough of Telford and Wrekin and supported by the Friends of Shropshire Archives.
