Merseyside's narrowest street that people walk by every day

A town in Merseyside is home to one of England's narrowest streets that can only fit one person at a time.

Dating back to the 16th century, Stone Street in Prescot can be hard to miss if you are passing by and didn't know it was there. It measures just 28 inches wide but it holds great historical value for the area.

The street is only just wide enough for people to walk down in single file, holding no hope for two people passing or vehicles. There used to be many streets like this in Prescot, but this is the only one to have survived.
