Memories from Jo's album of Bridgnorth twinning
Celebrations to mark the 40th anniversary of the twinning of Bridgnorth with the French town of Thiers prompted Mrs Jo Darkin to dip into her 1978 photo album.
She has sent us these reminders of the original twinning celebrations, which saw hundreds of visitors from France come over for three days of events to mark the link-up.
The official twinning ceremony took place in Bridgnorth High Street on Sunday, October 1, 1978, before big crowds.
Jo said: "Reading that there are going to be celebrations for the 40th anniversary of twinning with Thiers prompted me to look in our old photo albums.
