The parish contains the town of Bridgnorth and the small villages of Quatford, Danesford, and Oldbury.
The River Severn passes through the town, and divides it into two parts.
The part on the western side is mainly hilly, and is known as High Town, and the part by the river and on its east side is much flatter, and is known as Low Town.
Only a small fragment of the castle and the town walls have survived, and the only gateway is North Gate which is a 20th-century rebuilding on the original site.
The other listed buildings include public houses, hotels, clubs, offices, civic buildings, other churches, bridges, a bank, a folly, a warehouse, railway stations, a former textile mill, a drinking fountain, two conduit heads, a school, a war memorial, and a telephone kiosk.
