A Shropshire rugby club has said its new £1million flood-proof clubhouse has been completed.
Its previous clubhouse at the Edgar Davies Ground had been hit by flooding four times in the previous two years and the new clubhouse was designed to be raised 2.5 metres above the ground to protect from flood water.
“Our thanks go to all of these Members for their contributions to keeping the costs to the Club to a minimum and producing such good quality work. "Recognition by the Club will be provided in due course to properly thank all the volunteers, patrons and all of our other benefactors for their generous contributions in creating our New Clubhouse.
