Shrewsbury, United Kingdom

Old St Chad's Church stands in a small green space, a handful of graves and small trees. All that remains of the church is the lady chapel. The information boards for the church are very good, including detailed information, and braille versions of all text as well as tactile images. There has been a church dedicated to St Chad in Shrewsbury since the 12th century at the latest. It replaced a monastic site from the 7th century, and St Chad was the first Bishop of Mercia. By the 18th century the church was in a poor state and in 1788, the tower collapsed damaging much of the rest of the church.

Remaining portion of the church situated in a small park/graveyard. An informational sign provides context and contains Braille and a textured depiction of the original structure, as well as a couple audio recordings (though these were not working). A portion of the crypt is also visible nearby.
Nice peaceful place to sit. Good use of information boards
A little peace and quiet on a busy day.
When the sun is out and you want to rest your weary legs enjoy the ambience of the old grave yard and the old St Chad's chapel. The signage is excellent it also contains brail.
