About Shrewsbury Borough, NJ

Shrewsbury Borough is the historic Four Corners town at the junction of Routes 35 and 520 — and it is a completely separate municipality from neighboring Shrewsbury Township, the tiny residential enclave to its north. Do not confuse the two: the Borough is the larger, historic community anchored by the Shrewsbury Historic District at the Four Corners; the Township is a separate, much smaller municipality. The Borough's identity is colonial New Jersey. The Four Corners holds the Allen House (a 1710 tavern, now a museum), Christ Church (built 1769, with its colonial graveyard), the Friends Meeting House, and the Presbyterian Church — a National Register historic district (source). Beyond the historic core, Shrewsbury is a comfortable residential borough with walkable access to Red Bank's downtown just east. Housing mixes historic homes near the Four Corners with mid-century and newer suburban streets.
