A Merseyside town has been ranked "fittest" in the UK.
Southport has been labelled a town full of fitness fanatics by looking at the facilities available to those in the area. Forbes Advisor, an advice and news branch of Forbes, has created a top ten list of places in the country that are deemed the fittest.
The table was done by analysing green spaces data from the Ordnance Survey, the number of fitness facilities from Companies House and cycle route data from Sustrans to create an index. The study found that seaside town Southport ranked top, and nowhere else in Merseyside came in the top ten.
