Travel back in time on our history camp as we take you on a journey through the history of Shropshire.

Are you considering studying history at university? Do you want to enrich your experience and explore some of the possible career pathways?
History camp will encourage participants to consider all four forms of historical evidence as they visit some of Shropshire’s most historically important locations.

Visit the market town of Shrewsbury where Charles Darwin was born. Discover how his childhood spent here, helped him develop his love and passion for the natural world. His origins are deep rooted in Shropshire and to this day there are reminders of his life spent here.
