The Dun Cow, Abbey Foregate, Shrewsbury

The Dun Cow, about 1910

The photograph is undated but appears to have been taken about 1910.
This is a poor quality photograph but we have included it because of its age and the interesting sign to the right, which reads, ‘Dun Cow Livery & Bait Stables. Hearses, Mourning coaches of every discription ---- ---- --- all kinds of carriages for hire.
Coffin Maker & Funeral undertaker.
Good Stabling & Loose Boxes’
'J E Harley prop.’

The Dun Cow in the 1930s

The half timbering has been enclosed with plaster but the cow still remains over the door.
The Butlers hanging sign (over the door) suggests the photo was taken in the 1930s.
The house was run by W. Butler, Springfield Brewery, Wolverhampton when both photographs were taken.
