There's a beer festival in Clive, North Shropshire starting Thursday. All profits go to charity with Severn Hospice being the main beneficiary.

Yorton Station is very nearby and the 511 bus runs past.

Siouxsie and the Binshees 😕

Apologies in advance 🙏

I've had a look at the British Newspaper Archive and the story was reported across the country. Here's the Yorkshire Evening Post (Tuesday 1 December 1908).

An old-style Glasdon grit bin (I think; it's the knuckle-and-rod hinge that gives it away 😉) sitting on a grass verge in a hollow on the edge of Yeaton, a small village near Baschurch in north Shropshire.
