Oswestry Town Centre Visit Oswestry Town, a traditional and friendly North Shropshire market town with award-winning weekly markets , both indoor and outdoor, that bring visitors from all parts of Shropshire and North Wales. Would you like to explore a bit more of Shropshire? Oswestry is in the north western corner of the beautiful shire county of Shropshire so why not plan a day out in North Shropshire? Take a trip to old Oswestry Hill Fort and then on to Whittington — known for its medieval moated castle.
Then on to Ellesmere. The tiny market town of Ellesmere sits between the largest of the meres and the Llangollen canal and is a great place for walking around both the meres and canal towpaths. Canals cut through North Shropshire and a lovely way to spend a few days is on a narrowboat holiday. This long distance path from Prestatyn to Chepstow wanders across the border and, from Oswestry to Welshpool, is an especially fascinating section for walkers of all ages and abilities.
Explore the history of lime making at Llanymynech Heritage Area and see the connection between the Montgomery Canal and Victorian industrial workings. Walk along the canal side or climb up to Llanymynech Rocks to see views all over Shropshire and Wales. Cycling and walking are popular at Lake Vyrnwy and it is short detour on your way back to Oswestry to one of the seven wonders of Wales — Pistyll Rhaeadr or Llanrhaeadr Waterfall.
