Darrel Griffiths, 33 and of Sibdon Fields, Craven Arms, was sentenced at Shrewsbury Crown Court after pleading guilty to one charge of assault occasioning actual bodily harm.

Robert Holt, prosecuting, said that Griffiths had been at the Stokesay Inn with his victim on August 18 last year.

The court was told that after leaving and heading home Griffiths 'suddenly' punched the woman in the face 'several times', shouting that he intended to kill her.

The attack left her with bruising and swelling to her face.
