I was born in Formby and my Dad was born in Southport and I think they used to refer to people born in Southport as "Sandgrounders". Happy to be corrected.


Roger, I was born in Blackpool, so I think anyone born in a coastal town is deemed Sandgrown, Sandgrounders or similar, certainly for Blackpool you were Sandgrown or a Sandgrownun.
