POW Camps[edit]

I question the relevance of mentioning the two POW camps in the Second World War when it says the nearest was at Nesscliffe. There is no indication of Westbury in the citation, which leads me to suggest deletion. Nesscliffe is outside the parish of Westbury, with at least the parishes of Ford, Alberbury and Cardeston in between, and north of the River Severn.Cloptonson (talk) 05:48, 6 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Seeing no comment 6 years on, I will delete the paragraph for lack of relevance to the parish territory.Cloptonson (talk) 20:00, 5 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Caption amended[edit]

The caption to a picture I have adjusted to 'Council-built housing in Westbury' as some houses were bought from the council (Shrewsbury and Atcham) that previously owned them by tenants and the remainder were passed to a housing association in 2001 called Severnside, so there is now no council [owned and operated] housing in Westbury today.Cloptonson (talk) 20:48, 28 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
