As 2025 marks the 600th anniversary of the coat of arms of Shrewsbury (three leopards' heads, known familiarly as 'loggerheads'), it's only fitting that a book telling their centuries-old story, from 1425 to the present day, is being published.
It's on the shelves now at three bookshops in the town - Pengwern Books, Second Chapter Books and the Bear Steps Bookshop - at £7.99 a copy. Click here for details of the shops and their opening times (mail-order is available).
Although it's hot on historical fact, the book is a lot of fun, being told in an easy and accessible way with lots of photos and even a joke or two.
It's called 'The Mysteries Of The Loggerheads' because it purports to unravel almost all the myths surrounding their story.
Get your copy before they are sold out!
