Playing golf, drinking alcohol when told to stop, having barbecues and throwing stones are among a raft of activities banned along the Sefton coast last night.
At a meeting of Sefton ’s full council at Southport town hall yesterday (July 14) a public space protection order was approved covering the entire Sefton coast as well as four of the borough’s town centres at Bootle, Crosby and Waterloo, Formby and Southport.
The proposal had previously been subject to consultation by the public and been approved through the council ’s licensing committee before being brought to full council.
