This page should direct you to press cuttings and photos from different years. Hopefully most of the info is in the correct year. Certainly there will not be a chronological progression within each year or group of years.

The process of collating, scanning, resizing and all the other technical gubbins make the compilation of these pages quite time consuming. Information will be added at later dates.

Stay tuned and please be patient. Any constructive contributions for the addition of more material is welcomed. Please respond through the 'guestbook' or 'enquiry' pages on the site.

It has not been possible to give credit to all press sources as many references have been lost overthe years. Acknowledgements are due mainly to the Shropshire Star and the Border Counties Advertiser for the press cuttings. The local publications of the Tanat Chronicle and SY11 are also featured in recent years. In addition there are pieces from the brass band press which are identifiable by their house style. Additional material has been provided by current and previous members of the band and their families. The band is grateful for all these contributions and trust they bring pleasure and interest to those who view them.
