Shrewsbury's Darwin shopping centre to close for Queen's state funeral
A major shopping centre in Shropshire's county town will be closed on Monday for the state funeral of the Queen, it has been announced.
The Darwin Shopping Centre's doors will be closed because all of the centre's tenants have chosen to put shutters up for the Queen's funeral.
A spokesman for Shropshire Council said: "If you’re planning to visit Shrewsbury town centre on Monday, please note: The Darwin shopping centre will be closed (as all of the tenants have chosen to close). Raven Meadows multi-storey car park will be closed."
But the council says all its other car parks across the county will be open on Monday and free to use.
A swathe of council services will not be running on Monday, including bin collections which will be moved back a day.
