Shrewsbury is an unincorporated community located within Upper Freehold Township in Monmouth County, New Jersey, United States.[2] The settlement is located along County Route 524 at what was once a grade crossing with the Pemberton and Hightstown Railroad with an associated rail station.[3] Since the removal of the railroad, the right-of-way has become a part of the Union Transportation Trail. Besides the trail, the area is made up of mostly farmland with some agricultural-related businesses and single-family homes nearby.[4]
