Residents from a Telford housing estate will stage a "hands around the Dolphin" stunt to mark the closure of a much-loved pub.

The Dolphin, in Woodside, will be demolished to make way for shops and homes as part of the multi-million pound regeneration of the area.

And Tuesday will see time called for the last time by licensees Philip and Lesley Russell. The pub opened on December 1, 1970. Mrs Russell said: "On Tuesday at 4pm there will be a hands around the Dolphin event."

A family fun day featuring Irish band Barrel of Baddies will be held on Sunday.
