Revamp for Whitchurch CCTV network
Whitchurch's CCTV system is to undergo a revamp. Whitchurch Town Council has been awarded money to improve the 15 cameras.
But the council declined to say who had made the grant or how much had been awarded.
Michelle Wilson, the town council's clerk, said: "We have had the cameras in the town recently checked and some repairs have been carried out so they are all working fine at the moment.
"The town council has been awarded a grant, but I can't give the details yet."
The cameras are run by the security company Secureasound
Mayor Councillor Rob Hewson said: "I think it is brilliant that we are going to be able to improve the CCTV."
Earlier this year Diane Moulton, manager of clothing store Apparel on Green End, criticised the CCTV system following an incident involving a man with a knife, where West Mercia Police say they are still to make any arrests.
