Refunds have been handed to some The Salt Path fans after author Raynor Winn pulled out of a tour following allegations that parts of the best-selling memoir had been embellished.

Winn was due to be in Shrewsbury on Friday (11 July) on the Saltlines tour, a “prose and music collaboration” concept running since 2022, in which the author recites words alongside a live performance from the folk group Gigspanner Big Band.
