The Battlefields project starts from the Battlefields Enterprise Park in Shrewsbury, which is in the "Battlefield" area of Shrewsbury, which is adjacent to the site of the Battle of Shrewsbury (July 1403). You can visit the site of the battle.
This plaque is in the centre of Shrewsbury a few miles away from the battle site. It's on the wall of the Barclays bank. It's very hard to take in what happened here a few hundred years ago. At the same time we know that contemporary battles are taking place in streets like this one.
