Peter Harvey, who knows about my interest in Cannington Shaw, contacted me to say: “I noticed today that there is a district of St Helens called Cannington.

“At least there is a roundabout called Cannington. Yes, on the ring road.

“What I would call the Anderton-Shearer roundabout is actually called Cannington. Quite clearly at some stage the Council wanted to commemorate the Cannington Shaw building.

“They have now decided to name the new bridge after Steve Prescott, and I have no problem with that, but as always they easily forget about the past.”
