Former Notts County forward Peter Bircumshaw has died aged 78.

Born on 29 August 1938, Bircumshaw signed for the Magpies in 1956 and helped the club gain promotion from the Fourth Division in 1959-60.

Bircumshaw played as an inside-left and scored 18 goals in 22 games that season.

The following years brought even more goals, including his one club hat-trick in a 3-1 win against Port Vale in March 1961.

Overall, Bircumshaw scored 40 goals in 72 Notts appearances, before joining Bradford City in 1962.

A year later he signed for Stockport County before he moved into non-league football with Cambridge City.

Pride of Nottingham would like to extend its condolences to Bircumshaw's family and friends.
