Telford's rare and talkative at Trench Lock before its death

Shropshire Star

There has been an outpouring of sadness after the death of rare and 'talkative' Black Swan. The swan, which lived at Trench Pool, close to the Blue Pig public house in Telford, was reportedly savaged by a dog at around 12.40pm yesterday (SUNDAY, JANUARY 28). Cuan Wildlife Centre were called to help but said that the swan had died from its injuries by the time they arrived. The swan was popular with drinkers at the pub and was known for its friendly and 'chatty' nature. Videos: Stephen Handley Thumbnail: John Breuilly
