Earlier this week, some residents in Bridgnorth took to Facebook to lament the state of some parts of the town centre.

A number of residents posted pictures of areas of concern, including the rusty railing by the bridge and weeds on the pavements on Severn Street near to the Jobcentre.

Chris Bryan wrote: “Lived in Low Town for over 30 years. The community seating area next to the toilets by the boarded-up Parish Rooms is a disgrace.”

James Crowther added: “Down by the Jobcentre... surely there was £30 left over from the Cliff Railway budget for some weedkiller. Not nit-picking, always been thankful for living in Bridgnorth as it is a lovely town, but if it's not kept on top of it will end up a ship [sic] hole... let's hope someone sees these posts and can do something about it.”
