The curse of #StHelens #rugbyleague strikes again.
Previous sponsors, AllSports, St Helens glass and McKewans went tits up or sold on cheaply. Now stadium title sponsors, Brewdog have gone belly up.
If I was shirt sponsor, Home Bargains, I'd be shitting myself.

A green metal fingerpost with two fingers, both pointing to the right. The one in the foreground reads 'Ampitheatre', in white lettering. The one in the background is partly obscured, but reads 'Brookway Lane'. It is set in a relatively young woodland. The site is what used to be spoil tips for Bold Colliery, and before that, Parr moss. It is now known as 'Colliers Moss'. Brookway Lane is part of 'Cement City', a housing estate built for miners.
Another Friday, another classic example of the genre:
✅ Misspelt
✅ Used for target practise
Not as high scoring as last week's entry, but I think the prospect of visiting an 'ampitheatre' makes up for it.

Mount St. Helens
A mangled and rusted Pontiac Grand Prix destroyed in the Mount St. Helens eruption.
It's #throwbackthursday so here are some shots from last summer at #mountsthelens. 🌋
1. This was the magnificent view from our lunch spot.
2. The remains of a '72 Pontiac destroyed in the 1980 eruption.

Large wooden double doors set into a grand doorway: Corinthian columns, pointed arch, detailed mouldings, etc. The word 'BANK' is engraved ion the stone lintel. Plants are starting to grow from the cracks, and the whole thing is behind a temporary security fence.
Main entrance to the former National Westminster Bank, Hardshaw Street, #StHelens. Built circa 1860, remodelled 1878 & altered inside when converted into a bar in the 1980s. Closed since 2015 and not in the best of health. GII listed.

A gravestone, laid flat. The key part (for this purpose) of the text reads: ...THE RIGHT HONOURABLE STETPHEN WALSH MP... FOR 23 YEARS MEMBER OF PARLIAMENT FOR THE INCE DICISION DIED MARCH 16TH 1929, IN HIS 70TH YEAR... The sone also commemorates Anne Walsh (his wife, who lived until 1944), their son Arthur (KIA in 1918 with the South Lancashire Regiment), and four other family members. Photo my own, from 2019.

The grave of Rt. Hon. Stephen Walsh MP, miner & first Labour Sec. of State for War, at Holy Trinity, Downall Green, #StHelens Borough (historically Ashton-in-Makerfield). Known as 'Little Ste', he was a legendary figure, as his NY Times obituary conveys: www.nytimes.com/1929/03/17/a...

Back on the #RoadToWembley this Sunday for the #AdobeWomensFACup 5th Round tie between #Liverpool and #Everton at St Helens Stadium. A disappointing afternoon for The Toffees as they lost 2-1 to exit the competition but both goals they conceded were easily preventable #Groundhopping #StHelens

I hope this kid has a good defense attorney, and that the attorney hires a solid investigator https://youtu.be/2932hJiLu5Q
might be a great opportunity to spare this kid prison time & embarrass the crybaby Gestapo ratfucks at DHS for constantly overplaying their hand

A mosaic depicting Rocket viewed from the side, pointing to the right. Her body is red, with a brown chimney. A figure wearing a brimmed hat and holding a red shovel is stood on the footplate. The background is yellow, set into a black metal (not the Scandi style ones that burn churches down) frame. Photo from 2019, but the mosaic is still there.
A mosaic depiction of Stephenson's Rocket, by the #SankeyCanal in #StHelens. Made by schoolchildren & artist Bernadette Hughes, seeing it reminds me that planning for events to commemorate the Liverpool-Manchester line's 200th birthday is underway. #MosaicMonday #Railway200 #Rocket2030

The view from under a large bridge, along a path into woodland. The bridge is formed from two stone retaining walls spanned by an iron deck. The impression is of looking down a tunnel, with bright, greenwood light beyond.
An unheralded #StHelens spot, though remarkable enough: here the 1930s East #Lancashire Road (a proto motorway) crosses the Black Brook, scene of early, flickering, industrial activity & water supply for the #SankeyCanal. Now a part of a popular walking route. #IndustrialHeritage

As well as sadness, the day brings pride - both as a United fan & as @sthelenstownafc.bsky.social fan: Bill Foulkes (4th player from the right, next to goalkeeper Harry Gregg) played for Town first, signed for United and became a Red legend, & later returned as our club President. ❤️💙 #StHelens
A brick relief panel commemorating the completion of a building. It has triumphant columns and banners at the top and a large sheaf of wheat at the bottom, flanked by the intertwined numbers '19' and '14'. The words 'PEACE, &, PLENTY' are beneath. Photo my own, from 2016.

PEACE & PLENTY
This brick relief panel at the former Peasley Cross Conservative Club in my home town filled me w. sadness when I first noticed it. I imagine the members & locals were grimacing at the sight within a few months of completion. Ugh.

Six ceramic tiles in a rectangle, with relief features forming the St. Helens Coat of Arms. Pic my own, from 2015.
The old #StHelens Borough crest in ceramic tiles, with the classic motto: #ExTerraLucem. It is on the lodge at the St. Mark's Gate entrance to Victoria Park. The building was derelict for a long time. Now restored, it is now the brew HQ for a local #ParkRun, among things. #TilesOnTuesday #Lancashire
Public survey work we did in 2019 as part of producing the Borough Heritage Strategy found huge support for saving the Gamble - it is special to generations of Sinterlliners, me included. These proposals are very promising. Fingers crossed. #StHelens #Libraries
I gave a talk for the 60th anni. of #StHelens Hist. Society looking back & ahead 60 years. The final bit used a map like this: though the town itself will be above the rising sea, nearby lowland behind Southport will flood & the country as a whole be very different. Massive impact for everyone.
