commended the group on<br />
their hard work in organising<br />
such an event. He also said<br />

amount of similar local history<br />
groups that have started<br />
up over the years <strong>Wrekin</strong><br />
<strong>News</strong> has been bringing local<br />
stories to its readers.<br />

about war memorials across<br />
the district and Phil Morris<br />
