Cound is a village and civil parish on the west bank of the River Severn in the English county of Shropshire, about 7 miles south east of the county town Shrewsbury. Once a busy and industrious river port Cound has now reverted to a quiet rural community and dormitory village, for commuters to the commercial centres of Shrewsbury and Telford.
The Riverside Inn at Upper Cound, originally Cound halt on the Severn Valley Railway and built in 1862. Although unseen from this view, the original road and railway ran at what is now the rear of the building. The building is Grade II listed.
