Celebrating St George’s Day can be something of a split decision in the border village of Llanymynech, which is literally divided.

The Shropshire/Wales border actually runs straight through the main street, with two pubs in England and one in Wales.

So how do people decide to mark the Patron Saint of England - and are they willing to accept each other’s customs?

Video journalist James Shaw asked residents and landlords in Llanymynech about their plans for St George’s Day.
