Star’s front row seat for sporting history
- Local newspaper week
This week’s pictures from the past
Saturday 21st February 2009, 8:59AM GMT.

Barbara Willocks is pictured here with her father outside the Willocks premises in Barker Street, Shrewsbury.
He was a painter and signwriter, and the photo is possibly from the 1920s or 1930s.
The photo was loaned by Mrs Barbara Jones – as she later became – to Shrewsbury author and historian David Trumper, who in turn showed it to us.
