Opinions divided over future of Mersey 'ghost town'

Opinions are divided over a Merseyside 'ghost town' which locals say needs a 'miracle' to save it.

Last week, the ECHO visited Huyton Village to ask locals and business owners what they thought of the shopping area. Some expressed concerns over the number of shops closing their doors on the high street, and with the increase in anti-social behaviour, footfall has taken a dive.

One trader who had been there for 20 years said the area needed a "miracle" to save it, and a local resident added the anti-social behaviour is "bad". ECHO readers have since shared their opinions, with some agreeing more needs to be done, but others urging to give the area "a chance".
