Safety concerns at a deadly quarry are set to be addressed following the death of a teenage boy.
Jamie Lewin's body was found in the water of Appley Bridge quarry after a report that a boy had entered the water and got into difficulty at around 9.40pm on Saturday, July 9. Since then a number of tributes have been made to the 16-year-old from Southport.
Councillor Yvonne Gagen, Leader of West Lancashire Borough Council, said: "A young life cut short in this way is a terrible tragedy that cannot be expressed adequately in words. Our deepest sympathies go out to this young man's family at what is an unimaginably difficult time."
