## Abbey Foregate Car Park by Shrewsbury Abbey Railway Station

The station site is now occupied by a surface car park, with the original building and platform restored (Wikipedia). The council listing gives linear, per-minute charging, so the site suits drivers who need a public car park close to the station area rather than a private driveway.

Shrewsbury Abbey is directly opposite Abbey Foregate car park, which makes the location practical for visitors using the Abbey as well as passengers travelling from the former station site (Shrewsbury Abbey).

## Street Parking Around Abbey Foregate and Coleham

Limited street parking is available around Shrewsbury Abbey, according to the Abbey’s visitor information (Shrewsbury Abbey). The station address is 192A Abbey Foregate, Coleham, Shrewsbury, SY2 6AH, placing the approach on Abbey Foregate rather than in a separate station parking compound.

Drivers using surrounding streets should treat signed restrictions and any marked bays as controlling the stay, because the Abbey’s visitor information describes the street supply as limited (Shrewsbury Abbey).
