Bridgnorth Open House Arts Trail opened on Saturday for the first of two days showcasing more than 70 artists' work.

The unique twist on the trail sees Bridgnorth residents and businesses open up their homes and premises to host art and show off to the public, effectively creating a series of pop-up galleries around the picturesque town.

The trail across the town takes in 37 venues, including historic houses, some dating back to the 17th century, as well as former schools, a forge and a malthouse.
