Canal Cuttings - the SCARS Newsletter

Pictured outside The World of Glass is the haul from our annual spring-clean of the Sankey Canal at its St. Helens' Terminus. Despite the proximity of the Safeway Store, our volunteers report that few of the trolleys hauled out of the Canal in March were from that store, which is a great improvement over past years. Congratulations to Safeway - let’s hope other stores also become more careful over keeping their trolleys within their store precincts.
