Blists Hill firework display cancelled due to weather forecast
One of Shropshire's most popular firework displays has been cancelled due to fears over high winds.
Blists Hill Victorian Town, near Ironbridge, had been due to stage its annual extravaganza on Saturday evening.
But the event has now been cancelled after advice from the 'firework display partner' warned that predicted winds are too strong for the display to go ahead safely.
Organisers today apologised and promised refunds will be given to everyone who had bought tickets.
A statement said: "We are sorry to announce that we have had to cancel this Saturday's Fireworks Night event at Blists Hill Victorian Town.
