Residents of a Merseyside village were left confused after roads had to be closed to allow huge objects to pass through.
Onlookers in Rainhill filmed the convoy of vehicles, which appeared to be towing two massive white cylinders while escorted by police . The video has been shared to Facebook on local page Rainhill Rocks- leading to speculation on what the objects could be.
Some believe the objects were underground fuel tanks, while others speculate that they are bound for Budweiser brewery, near Preston. This is not the first time objects like that has passed through the village.

In January the ECHO reported how objects resembling these ones were also being carried through the village, leading villagers to create their own theories. On comment said: "We were stuck right behind these in Prescot at 10am this morning. They went around the big roundabout (near safari park) heading towards Huyton. The first said No1 the second said No2. Haven't a clue what was in them."
One comment said: "Apparently they are for a brewery in Samlesbury near Preston. God knows why they wandered through Rainhill though."
While another read: "Look like conical fermenting vessels, me wife says they had Budweiser on them, they have a brewery outside Preston."
However others had different ideas, believing the giant objects are to be used in the local area, one person said: "Deffo looks like wind turbines wonder where they are being put up."
