Albrighton is a large village in the Bridgnorth district of Shropshire, England. It is located to the northwest of Wolverhampton, close to RAF Cosford.

 

Mentioned in the Domesday book as Albricston or the home/farm of Albric, it received its charter in 1303, which was renewed in 1662 for rather unusual reasons. The charter declared that "because Albrighton (then) adjoined Staffordshire on the east, south and west sides, felons and other malefactors fled Staffordshire to escape prosecution because there was no resident justice of the peace in that part of Shropshire".
