Shrewsbury, a market town and the county town of Shropshire, England, has a rich history that dates back to at least the year 901, although it could have been first settled earlier. During the early Middle Ages, the town was a center of the wool trade, and this was a peak in its importance. It was probably founded as a town in the 8th century by the Saxon rulers of Mercia, who needed a fortified burh to control the Severn river-crossing on the road between the burhs of Hereford and Chester. It replaced the large Roman fortified town of Viroconium Cornoviorum only 5 miles to the south-east. During the Industrial Revolution, the town became a center for ironwork, leatherwork, and brewing. Shrewsbury's strategic position near the border between England and Wales has made it a town of great importance. The town has been involved in wars with the Welsh, and Edward I entirely rebuilt the castle. In 1403 Henry IV consolidated his throne in the Battle of Shrewsbury.
