Let there be light... Oswestry Town Football Club in action under floodlights at their ground. This picture was taken on Wednesday, September 16, 1970, and recorded a historic event as it was Oswestry's first floodlit match. The floodlights had cost £5,000. A total of 1,271 fans saw them beat Ormskirk 2-1 at the Town's ground in Victoria Road, Oswestry.
