Telford Town Park and The Quarry in Shrewsbury are both in the running to win the title of best park in the UK – but which one is Shropshire's best?

Both beauty spots have been nominated in the category of 'UK's Best Park – as voted for by you!' at this year's Fields in Trust Awards.

Fields in Trust is a national charity which works to safeguard parks and campaign for better protection of green spaces against developers.

People have until 5pm today to nominate a green space for the title – so there is still time to put other county parks forward.

From tomorrow, people will be able to log onto the group's website and start voting. The winners will be revealed at the awards ceremony at the start of December.
