Every area has their own dialect, and terms that may bewilder those not from the town or city.

St Helens is no exception, with many streets and estates given slang names that could leave non-Sintellinsers scratching their heads. For example: "The Trees Estate " in Newton-le-Willows, is comprised of streets named almost completely after trees, such as Oak Avenue, Acorn Street, Ivy Avenue.
