A prop gravestone belonging to Ebenezer Scrooge has been destroyed.
It featured in the 1984 film version of Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol, and had been a popular tourist attraction at St Chad's Church church in Shrewsbury ever since.
Police say the headstone was smashed into at least two pieces and overturned "within the last three days".
Sheds housing nearly 200,000 broiler chickens at a Herefordshire farm are to be demolished and rebuilt to a higher standard.
A planning application by Avara Foods, one of the county’s largest employers, says the replacement sheds at Parkway Farm, Madley west of Hereford would have the same footprint as the current eight within the two-hectare site, and “will not result in any increase in floor area, bird numbers, or operational intensity”.
