Britain's What's On Event Guide
Newport Heritage Festival - Guildhall Newport Shropshire
Heritage Open Day: Visit the wonderful Tudor Guildhall, home to Newport Town Council, in the heart of Newport Shropshire. On Saturday the 14th of September, Newport is opening as many doors as possible.
Some of our historic buildings will be open for the public to visit free of charge. These include the Tudor Guildhall, the Newport Cemetery Chapel of Remembrance and a walk of some of the most interesting graves in the cemetery, St. Nicholas Church (and hopefully the bell tower too), the Black Shed at the canal (Victorian warehouse) and others.
The Guildhall is a Grade II* listed building that was refurbished by the Town Council, with funding from English Heritage in 1994.
Many original features are visible, including decorated timbers, unique in this part of Shropshire.
Sat 14 Sep:10am - 4pm; Free Entry.
