High Sheriff of Shropshire
Ceremonial officer of the English county of Shropshire
This is a list of sheriffs and high sheriffs of Shropshire
The sheriff is the oldest secular office under the Crown. Formerly the high sheriff was the principal law enforcement officer in the county but over the centuries most of the responsibilities associated with the post have been transferred elsewhere or are now defunct so that its functions are now largely ceremonial. From 1204 to 1344 the Sheriff of Staffordshire served also as the Sheriff of Shropshire.
Under the provisions of the Local Government Act 1972 , on 1 April 1974 the office previously known as sheriff was retitled high sheriff .[ 1] The high sheriff changes every March.
