Murder of bride-to-be and how the 'beast of Birkenhead' was brought to justice

By the side of a busy main road running through the centre of Birkenhead is a small shrine passed by thousands of motorists and pedestrians every day.

Even though it relates to an incident which took place almost 36 years ago, fresh bunches of flowers regularly appear at the site, just opposite the Pyramids shopping centre.

A picture of the memorial was shared on Facebook earlier this week and there were some who did not remember or have any knowledge of the tragic story which lies behind the shrine, beyond what is written on a simple black memorial stone.
