Nice little ruin. Its free to park and enter. Its worth a look but will not take anymore than 20 minutes up of your time.

Buildwas abbey, is an English heritage property and is free to enter. I did try to visit once before but it was flooded from the nearby river Severn. There are a large amount of above ground ruins and although you won't spend a long time here it is worth a visit. There was an EH hut here which I presume is a little shop but it wasn't open. There is enough parking on site but no toilets or cafe.

Visited on my Shropshire holiday on 2020, after the first Covid waves and lockdowns. The site was empty and a bit hidden, car park is not too big, but being alone was enough... To be honest I went there early, because I wanted to see other attractions on that day, too. Not too many information, or rather not at all information, and though the ruins are impressing and we can have some image in our mind of the abbey's life centuries ago, but some details would be appreciated. I did not find toilet on site, or maybe it was locked because of the covid misery, but all in one a short hour is enough to spend there. It is free to visit.

Another hidden gem deep in the Shropshire hills. Buildwas Abbey is a 12th century building. Largely intact still. It’s run by English heritage and members park for free. There is a £2 charge for non members. It has a quiet haunting presence which is felt throughout the abbey. Plenty of picnic tables around and it’s next to the river Severn too. Very close to Much wenlock and the priory. Definitely worth a visit

One of English Heritages free sites, although there is a charge for non-members to park. There is a second-hand book shop with staff on hand. A fair bit to explore with information boards dotted around. A guidebook is avadible from Wenlock Priory or online through English Heritage. Few steps and there is a part with a drop on either side. Most of it is grass, and the entrance off the main road is a bit blind and steep. Good stop if you plan to do a few things in the area

This is one of English heritage free places to visit, parking is £2 for the day. Closed during the dissolution. There is quite a lot of the original buildings remaining so it's well worth visiting alongside a visit to much wenlock priory which is down the road . Lovely spot to have a picnic, 2nd hand bookshop inside the old kiosk. Some fine examples of tiles on display.

Really beautiful and peaceful spot for a quiet stroll. The grounds are not huge and do not take long to explore however there are some details worth going to see such as the medieval tiles which are all unique and beautiful still preserving vibrant colours. There is ample infomation on on signs as you walk around with fantastic illustrations to help you imagine it's former glory. There are picnic benches where you can enjoy a picnic with beautiful views. We attended in winter, it was free! We are not sure if it's always free in winter but gates were wide open and nobody was there. Definitely worth a stop if you like historical points of interest.

I have been here before, so wanted to go back and take some photos this time as it rained the first time. Unfortunately there are major renovations going on so several areas are fenced off. It is still a lovely place, and worth a visit, especially as it is free at the moment. Hopefully they will be able to complete the renovations quickly, and able keep the ruins safe for generations to come.

Such a beautiful place to visit. Entry is free, parking is only £2 if you are not a national trust member. Reading the history of this place on the boards dotted around was so interesting and to walk inside the rooms that monks once resided in hundreds of years ago, was such a surreal experience. If you are nearby, it is a must see.

Lovely to visit and informative boards around. No one in the English Heritage Booth when I visited. The car park isn't big but space to park on the lane to it. Relaxing vibe here

One of many UK abbeys one can visit. Definitely worth to stop and pop in especially as the Entry cost were only £2 for parking fee. The site/buildings are quite well described by boards around the place but should you be interested you can also buy very nicely set guide for i think £3.50. The only downside was, during our visit, the fencing around part of the main nave where there were either some restoration works in progress or possibly exclude visitors from a place of danger (ruined my photos a bit)

I love this place for its serenity. It's not as big or imposing as other sites, but its remoteness contributes towards imagining how it might once have been far back in the depths of time. There are beautiful tiles in the chapter house, and the site, though on the smaller side, is very evocative.

Very impressive building. Travelled to here by bike but most travel by car to here. Had a chat with a volunteer here whose job is to clean and maintain the beautiful mosaics in the cloisters. The mosaics are the highlights of this abbey

It's free and as much to see as Wenlock down the road. There is some building work in progress. The main meeting chamber is delightful and wonderful part tile floor

This is a large and interesting ruin to explore, and costs nothing to see (except parking). We happened to go on a day when there were actors doing live recreations. A nun told us of reading/writing and a doctor told us of the humours. There were several others we didn't talk to. Well worth going on a day they're there.

Interesting and very impressive building. Good to walk around and see the architecture from the past. Free to get in, just need to pay parking if you are not an English Heritage Member.

Easy to find. Limited parking. Undergoing some renovations. Not maintained as well as it could be. Still a lovely insight into local history though.

Beatiful and peaceful ruin the side is manned but free apart from carpark witch is £2 but only down side is parking has tobe payed though aparking app

2£ parking, has some picnic tables. Beautiful little spot overall. Very quiet.

Really nice looking architecture, the arches where you can see the floors above are amazing, and the tiles on the floors amazing, definitely worth a visit

Interesting remains of a Cistercian Abbey, quite a large section still stands that can be explored some absolutely beautiful old floor tiles still remain in a couple of areas of the building, when I visited there was a section that was fenced off due to a structural investigation being carried out but still worth a view all the same.

Beautiful quiet area to stroll around. Architecture is wonderful. Admission is free but a £2.50 parking fee.

History that's worth just to stop by. Ruins are well kept and parking is 2 pounds. Nice 2 ladies that were there on a Sunday watching over the place. It's a short look around but the ruins are a sight to behold.
