Pictures From The Past – October 4

Welcome to this week's collection of nostalgia photos from the pages of the Shropshire Star.

Published Oct 7, 2019

These are the catering staff outside Silhouette in Harlescott, Shrewsbury. The picture is undated. Early 1970s maybe? It comes from Michael Davies, of Shrewsbury, whose step-grandmother Resi Davies was catering manager. Resi is back row, sixth from left. Michael's mother Annie Davies used to work there part time as well as a catering assistant. Resi was Austrian and came to England before the war.
