A PUB at Garswood is to be ordered to remove a sign which planners say could distract motorists and cause a road danger.

Members of St Helens Council's Planning Committee decided that the sign, advertising The Stag, should be removed within a month or they will take legal action.

The sign has been erected without planning permission on Liverpool Road near its junction with Tithebarn Road and Millfield Lane within the Green Belt. The committee also decided it was out of character and inappropriate for the area.
