Montgomery's

Montgomery's at Astbury Hall opened on Friday, April 8, at the historic 320-acre estate at Chelmarsh which dates back to the 19th century. It was rebuilt after a fire by Edmund Southwell who served as Bridgnorth mayor from 1895-97.

The site was acquired by new owners in 2020 after going into adminstration three years earlier when owned by rock star KK Downing.

Extensive renovations have taken place in the last two years, incorporating original features such as intricate ceiling roses and coving, with luxurious textures and bold teal colours, to create a warm and relaxing environment.
