In the square in Shrewsbury i came across this in the pavement. It's the shape of the river Severn loop around Shrewsbury and reads:
"Prefent well built and populous, carries on a confiderable trade and is grown rich by the induftry of its inhabitants by the cloth manufacture, and by the trade with the Welfh. For hither almoft all of the commodities of Wales are brought as to one common market, it being inhabited both by the Welfh and Englifh".
