Over 20 local history groups, enthusiasts and experts gathered at Shire Hall to enjoy a day of talks covering canals, Shropshire and the Western Front, the Historic Environment Record, and medieval seals. There were updates from Shropshire Archives introducing their new online catalogue, Mark Hignett discussing the First World War trenches project at Park Hall, and the Clun Look Back project. Partnering with the Shropshire Remembers project, the day was interspersed with a Tudor entertaining reflecting the 400th anniversary of Shakespeare’s death.
