Andrew Lindop, 51, admitted the offences, which date between May and September 2017, when he appeared at Shrewsbury Crown Court.
Of the films, 36 were in category A, the most serious, while the remainder were category B. They were all downloaded to a computer, viewed and subsequently deleted.
The court heard that Lindop, of Betjeman Way, Cleobury Mortimer, had one non-recent previous conviction for gross indecency.
Sentencing was adjourned until May 4 for a probation report, and Lindop was granted unconditional bail.
