It is believed two complaints have been made against Councillor Barrow.

Shropshire Council said it was unable to comment.

Claire Porter, Shropshire Council's corporate head of legal and democratic services, said: "The standards sub committee will be meeting on November 14 and will be considering a code of conduct complaint, however the council cannot comment at this time due to the risk that the process may be compromised."

Councillor Barrow said she was unable to comment.
