What reading level is The Old Houses of Shrewsbury Their History And Associations book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

The butcher's shop (Nos. 9, 10) with overhanging storey is obviously a frame-house though hidden by plaster. The tenement at the corner of Hill's Lane (now divided into two shops) bears the date 1448 on a tablet. The house is evidently one of the oldest of its kind in Shrewsbury, the timbers being quite plain and rectangular : still it can hardly be quite so old as 1448. The tablet was only recently affixed and the authority for it has been given as follows. During repairs to the upper part som...e years ago a beam was uncovered which it was conjectured formed part of the end wall of the house, which was then detached. On this beam were incised some figures which were read as 1448. The beam was covered in again so cannot now be examined.
Here let us turn out of Mardol into Hill's Lane. Three hundred years ago this was a fashionable residential part of Shrewsbury but — truly — its glory has departed ! On the left is a range of low framed building contemporaneous, and probably originally connected with, the old corner-house in Mardol.
