Motto 'FLOREAT SALOPIA' - May Shrewsbury prosper.
Granted 27th November 1975.

The Borough of Shrewsbury and Atcham was formed by the amalgamation of the Borough of Shrewsbury and the Atcham Rural District.

The three gold lions' faces on blue, are from the arms of the former Borough of Shrewsbury, which were first recorded 1623. They are thought to be derived from the Royal Lions in a 13th Century seal, and the colours are those of Roger de Montgomery, Earl of Shrewsbury. To these is added a reprsentation of Atcham Bridge, the emblem of the former Atcham RDC.
The badge shows one of the lion's faces on the keystone of the bridge, with crosiers recalling the Abbeys of Shrewsbury, Haughmond and Buildwas.
The motto is that long used by the former Borough Council.
