The Navigation is one of only two pubs in Shropshire situated on the Montgomery Canal.

The low beamed public bar is a cosy and welcoming place, having a couple of sofas by a traditional log fire. There’s additional seating in a raised area at one end of the bar, together with a piano. The Gallery leads off from the bar. This is used for exhibiting artworks but can also double up as a more casual dining room or meeting room. The Warehouse Bar is quite small and furnished with old pews. Further along again is the Warehouse restaurant, an L-shaped room having one side looking out onto the Canal.

The pub was an entry in the early days of the Good Beer Guide from 1976 to 1980, and was once a part of the large local estate of the Shrewsbury & Wem Brewery.

Historic Interest

Part of the building was a warehouse in the days when the canal was busy with a substantial amount of traffic.
