Pippin Street Roundabout

Image: © Gerald England Taken: 16 Jul 2010

Roundabout at the junction of Pippin Street and Tollgate Road which leads to the Burscough Industrial Estate. The roundabout features an eyecatching design linked to its history as a former military airfield. The main element of the design is the use of wing-shaped markers, which have been designed as a reference to the Fairey Firefly fighter plane flown from the site in World War II.
