Listen: Shropshire Q1 2026 commercial property briefing

The Shropshire regional briefing covering Ludlow and the wider region. A Q2 2026 commercial property briefing on Shropshire, a heritage-rich Welsh-border shire anchored by the Tudor county town of Shrewsbury and the post-war new town of Telford, with a string of distinctive market towns from Whitchurch and Market Drayton in the north to Bridgnorth and Ludlow in the south. We walk through transaction volumes across the seven principal towns, what four Acuitus auction lots tell us about secondary clearing levels, including a rare prime food-anchored print at Oswestry, and where lender appetite sits today.
