Pictures From The Past - December 15

Welcome to this week's collection of nostalgia photos from the pages of the Shropshire Star.

Published Dec 18, 2017

This postcard showing a busy Broad Street in Welshpool is undated, but the scene may well be from the late 1930s or early 1940s as it has printed on the back: "We shall continue steadfast in faith and duty till our task is done" - the Prime Minister. This would seem to suggest that it was produced during the war. Picture: Sally Anne Richards.
