Shrawardine
Shrawardine, locally pronounced ''Shray-den'', otherwise pronounced ''Shray-war-dine'', is a small village in the civil parish of Montford. It is outside of Shrewsbury, the county town of Shropshire, England.〔Raven, M. ''A Guide to Shropshire'', 2005, p.178〕 Its landmarks include Shrawardine Castle and St Mary's Church. The castle, known as Castell Isabella by the Anglo-Normans, was built in the reign of Henry I of England, and dismantled during the English Civil War in 1645.〔 It had been held since 1644 by the Royalist commander Sir William Vaughan, whose aggressive tactics earned him the nickname "the Devil of Shrawardine".〔Mangianello, S. ''The concise encyclopedia of the revolutions and wars of England, Scotland, and Ireland, 1639-1660'', Scarecrow, 2004, p.491〕 The River Severn passes to the west of the village. On the other side of the river is a hamlet called Little Shrawardine. It lies in the civil parish of Alberbury with Cardeston. ==References==
