A Merseyside high street is rebuilding historic links to help 'bring the buzz back' to the town.
Newton-le-Willows High Street has been a bustling area for business and nightlife for years, with many citing the area as one of the key reasons for the town being named one of the hottest spots in the country to move to last year. In a bid to 'strengthen the community', several businesses on the high street strip have banded together to form the 'High Street Hive'.
Building on the legacy of the former 'High Street Hub', almost all businesses on the strip have joined the hive, which allows the array of different shops and bars to collaborate and arrange social and charity events for the town. The upcoming jubilee for Queen Elizabeth II is something the group is keen to make the most of- planning street parties and markets for the town to enjoy over the bank holiday.
