One of Shropshire's oldest residents has been raising a glass to celebrate her birthday, after reaching 104 last week.
Surrounded by cards and balloons, Hilda Cross was joined by 18 members of her family including her daughters, grandchildren and great grandchildren for a celebration at the Montgomery House care home in Shrewsbury on Saturday.
Hilda, who turned 104 on Wednesday, was born in Bolton on February 21, 1920 - just two years after the end of the First World War.
