In pictures: How Bridgnorth remembered VE Day 80 years on
There was bunting, 40s songs and a lot of fun as a Shropshire town marked the 80th anniversary of VE Day.
Bridgnorth Town Council arranged a part in the Castle Grounds from 7.30pm to mark the May 8 celebration. In conjunction with promoters Dangerous Sheep Events, hundreds descended to the grounds for the free event in the evening.
The night saw Lisa-Marie Morrall perform songs from the era, tribute readings, as well as plenty of food and refreshments.
Following the fun, a beacon was lit in the Castle Grounds, which was followed by hymns and the national anthem
Mayor Ian Wellings branded it a “great night”.
He said: “Thank you to everyone who attended, what a fabulous event.
“Terrific Singer - Lisa Morrall, excellent Compere Kevin from Dangerous Sheep and not forgetting all the hard work put in by Officers and Staff at Bridgnorth Town Council.”
