A Merseyside town is home to an "astonishing" venue that people travel for miles to visit.
Prescot is home to the only 17th-century style, timber-built "Cockpit" theatre outside London. Able to seat 450 spectators, the theatre was built entirely during the pandemic with public funds and donations.
Expected to attract more than 140,000 visitors a year, it opened its doors last year after two decades of planning, and has proven to be a success ever since. Whether visiting a theatre for the first time, or plans to see what it is like, positive feedback came pouring in.
