Shropshire bird flu restrictions updated

It's nearly 12 weeks since bird flu restrictions were put in place following an outbreak of the virus at Griffiths farms near Wem, where about a million hens had to be culled.

Efforts to stop the spread of avian flu has meant bird owners across the county have had to keep them in.

A 3km protection zone around the farms in question has now been lifted, but a 10km surveillance zone is still in place.
