Telford

   

city description

Telford, the largest town in Shropshire, is mint. The saying, at least, is said to have originated from the new town. It was only build in the late '60s and has a younger than average population, lending a lively and energetic feel to the place. There are a tad under 2,000 land-based students dotted around Telford, home to the Industrial Revolution and the world-famous Iron Bridge across the River Severn.

Telford has bowling, ice skating and movies. Shopping is getting better each year. Pub food is definitely improving!! I moved to Wellington, outside Telford, 8 yrs ago and love it. We are in The Wrekin part of T&W which makes it nicer to live here! I plan never to move from here, this is my home. Markets are good and frequent - tue,thu,fri,sat. There is lovely scenery from The Wrekin and great walks if you feel like getting out from in front of the computer for a walk! added 23 / 01 / 08 04:25

Telford in my opinion is a depressing and boring place to live. Its full of chavs and pregnant teens. True the town centre is decent but the clubbing scene is awful added 06 / 01 / 08 04:34

I've lived in Telford since I was 13 + they've been good times. I love Wellington,because it is near the train station,so I can go anywhere I like for the day,(if I don't want to be in Wellington) + get a train to work + college. The International Centre is good (I work there as a waitress)
Telford Town is awesome + so is Spencer's Mall, they have an guitar shop that sells tambourines :) think one of the guys from 9 lives helps to run it. Best times ever though. added 10 / 11 / 07 10:58

I've lived in Telford my whole life (23 years), and think I've gotton around most of it. Telford's main appeal is aided by it's New Town status, and many shops are trying to relocate to Telford Shopping Centre, which has over 160 stores. As far as entertainment goes Telford has a bowling alley and a cinema at the centre of town, and nightclubs in the Oakengates and Wellington areas. Telford International Centre also hosts many popular events, including the Midlands Movie Comics and Media Expo. added 04 / 09 / 07 06:41
