On my last afternoon in Shrewsbury I decided to take a trip on a boat along the River Severn. There are daily trips between 1st March until 31st October and 11am to 4pm, leaving on the hour. I’d read that seats are issued in order of booking so you’re not guaranteed a seat on the top deck which is why I decided to book in advance as I’d seen long queues for the boats when I’d walked by on previous days. Thankfully though there was plenty of room on top for my 3pm trip on a random Thursday despite there also being several parties on board celebrating birthdays.
