WREKIN SPORT 90TH YEAR CELEBRATIONS
Wrekinsport CC are appealing for photographs, sight of historic racing jerseys, information and memories about the club's history and riders for a project to celebrate their upcoming 90th anniversary. The club can trace its origins back to 1922, with the Wrekinsport name coming into existence in the 1960's following the merger of Dawley Velo and Wrekin Roads Club. However there are significant gaps in the records which old club members or relatives could help to fill. If anyone can help please contact Club Chairman Dave Poulter at davidpoulter@aol.com

About the "Wrekin" in Wrekinsport - click here
The Wrekin is a hill in east Shropshire, England. It is located some 7 km (4 miles) west of Telford, on the border between the unitary authorities of Shropshire and Telford and Wrekin. Rising to a height of 407 metres (1,335 ft.) above the Shropshire Plain, it is a prominent and well-known landmark, marking the entrance to Shropshire for travellers westbound on the M54 motorway. The Wrekin is contained within the northern panhandle of the Shropshire Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The hill is popular with walkers and tourists and offers good views of Shropshire. It can be seen well into Staffordshire and the Black Country, and even as far as the Beetham Tower in Manchester, Winter Hill in Lancashire and Cleeve Hill in Gloucestershire.
