A Huyton man is celebrating his final day at Aintree racecourse after 60 years of service.
Eddie Fullerton, 74, was just 14-years-old when his mum asked him to tag along to the famed racecourse. Reluctant at first, Eddie soon landed a job as a porter before going on to work at multiple racecourses for the next 60 years.
An Aintree legend, Eddie is known and loved by staff, festival goers and jockeys alike. Speaking to the ECHO on his final day, he said: "I'm feeling well, it's been a long time, I've met an awful lot of nice people on the journey."
