The 23-year-old, who has scored 14 goals in 23 matches this season, has joined Salop after signing a two-and-half-year deal.Stewart is the joint leading scorer in the National League North this season with his former side sitting 17th in the table.
He did not feature in his former side's game last night against Chester - which former Town youngster Charlie Caton played and scored in.
He becomes the first signing of the window, and is a much-needed boost for Shrews and head coach Gareth Ainsworth.
Town sold Tom Bloxham to Blackpool on Tuesday, and they have also seen Josh Kayode and Charles Sagoe Jr return to their parent clubs.
Jordan Rossiter has left on loan and joined Oldham for the rest of the season.
Shrewsbury take on their arch-rivals Wrexham on Thursday evening in the cross-border derby.
