Oswestry is an ancient market town in North Shropshire close by the English/Welsh Border. Its strategic position as a 'frontier town' has given it a turbulent history. Today the town serves as a market and shopping centre serving North West Shropshire and Mid Wales. Narrow passageways link streets whose names conjure images of the past:: English Walls, Welsh Walls, The Bailey and the Horsemarket. It is a locally important agricultural centre and retains the intimacy of a rural town with a number of specialist and independent shops.

Oswestry was once encircled by town walls which is shown on the medieval street plan of a walled town. The Oswestry Town Trail leaflet is available from the Heritage Centre and the Tourist Information Centre and can be used to tour the town's many sites of historical interest for example: St Oswald's Church. Cae Glas Park, the town's old gates and Castle Bank are just a few of the places of interest.

Many activities to be enjoyed in the town & nearby include ballooning, art galleries and museums, craft centres, gardens, white water rafting, falconry, rowing & bird watching.
