Description

Description
The retail unit occupies the ground floor and lower ground floor of a prominent Grade II listed building. Occupying a corner position, the unit benefits from a traditional recessed glazed frontage onto The Square with a second, stepped entrance off Market Street. The shop benefits from wide display windows to both elevations typical of its former use.

Internally, the retail area is open plan with carpeted floors and recessed lighting panels and staff accommodation and stairs to lower ground floor at the rear of the unit.

The lower ground floor is currently being used for storage and office purposes and has excellent retail potential having been used as such in the past.

Location
The shop is located on Shrewsbury’s historic Town Square. It lies in the heart of the town centre with the High Street at one end and Market Street at the other. The property itself is situated on the corner of The Square and Market Street, opposite the Old Market Hall Cinema and Café and adjacent to the Shrewsbury Museum and Art Gallery, one of Shropshire’s top attractions which draws in excess of 70,000 visitors each year.

The Square is a popular and sought after retail destination. The unit sits adjacent to Barbour and Pockets (designer wear) and opposite Carvell. There are also several popular cafe’s and restaurants in close proximity including Cote Brasserie, Starbucks, La Piazzetta and Cats Pyjamas.

Retail units are highly sought after and rarely available which makes the availability of this corner unit an exciting proposition.

Shrewsbury and Retail:

In 2025, Shrewsbury was named number one in the Telegraph’s list of UK’s best high streets for the second year in a row. Shrewsbury Market Hall has also been voted ‘Britain’s Favourite Market’ for an unprecedented third year running and a record 4th time at the 2025 Great British Market awards. The town is also home to Wyle Cop which is reputedly the longest uninterrupted run of independent traders in the Country.

Given such accolades, it is hardly surprising that Shrewsbury’s High Street attracted record footfall numbers in December 2025 with more than £135million spent by visitors to it’s town centre shops and businesses, outperforming GB benchmarks.

In the wider context Shropshire’s visitor economy as a whole surpassed £1 billion for the first time in 2025, a 10.1% increase from 2024, supported by its 10.66 million visitors.
