Thanks @jet nice pictures.

The Shrewsbury I know is in Pennsylvania, very different, close to the Amish country. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shrewsbury,_Pennsylvania

Nice to see what the original looks like!

Lovely old buildings. I have to ask, does the Shrewsbury biscuit originate from there.?

Where did Shrewsbury biscuits originate?


SHREWSBURY biscuits are named after the small town in Shropshire and were first documented in the 1500s as a cake. It was a lot different from the modern-day Shrewsbury biscuit, being delicate and fragile in texture – sadly they are not commercially made today.

You can buy them in New Zealand.
