The ceremonial county of Shropshire (which comprises the unitary authorities of Shropshire Council and Telford and Wrekin), is divided into 5 parliamentary constituencies: 1 borough constituency and 4 county constituencies.
See 2023 review of Westminster constituencies for further details.
For the 2023 review of Westminster constituencies, which redrew the constituency map ahead of the 2024 United Kingdom general election, the Boundary Commission for England opted to retain the current five constituencies in Shropshire, with minor boundary changes to reflect changes to ward boundaries and to bring constituencies within the statutory range. Shrewsbury and Atcham reverted to its original name of Shrewsbury, while Ludlow was renamed South Shropshire.
Under the fifth periodic review of Westminster constituencies, the Boundary Commission for England decided to retain the 5 constituencies in Shropshire for the 2010 election, making only small changes to the boundary between Telford and The Wrekin to align with current local government wards.
