Summary

Description
English: St Julian's and St Alkmund's Churches, Shrewsbury. Medieval towns usually have large numbers of churches, often close together. St Alkmund's Church (on the left) was rebuilt in 1793-5 retaining the medieval tower and spire. St Julian's Church similarly has a tower built c.1200, with later upper stages in Perpendicular style, but the nave rebuilt in 1749-50 and the south side, partly visible in this photo, decorated by Classical Tuscan pilasters in 1846. The narrow road between the churches is Fish Street. The building on the left is 1 High Street and was built in the early 19C. It has a 16C timber-framed wing at the rear. The roof is hidden behind a parapet. Note the street light fastened to the wall of the building.
