And, for many, it will inevitably lead to memories of past summers when Shropshire has enjoyed long spells of hot sunshine.

Today we delve into the archives of the Shropshire Star for some memorable scenes from years gone by.

Some reflect outdoor attractions that are no longer here, or special events that brought on big crowds to enjoy a summer day out.

Others are simply every day life going on, such as school lessons moving outside or people sitting outside their door having a chat.

We would love to hear your summer memories. Email them, and any pictures, to letters@shropshirestar.co.uk.
