Built in the 1870’s as a retirement home for a wealthy Shrewsbury merchant, this large pub was first licensed in 1931, when it was extended into the building that we see today.

Formerly the Brooklands, after refurbishment in mid 2017 the pub re-opened as the Wild Pig. It is a huge barn of a place that needs a lot of customers to make it work properly. The raised area at road level is a traditional bar filled with sports TVs, pool table, dart board and gaming machines. Down a few steps is a large lounge with a range of different tables and seating arrangements. The local Football League team, Shrewsbury Town, plays nearby, and supporters can pay to park their cars here on match days.

Was closed for a few months following serious flooding, reopening on 7/7/25. The details shown here may have changed. A survey by the local CAMRA branch is to be undertaken.

Historic Interest

The pub was an entry in two early editions of the Good Beer Guide (1976 & 1977) and was also once a part of the large local estate of the Shrewsbury & Wem Brewery.
