After the 1967–68 season, they left the district and moved to nearby Huyton, changing the club's name to Huyton RLFC.

In popular culture In the 1960s, Knotty Ash was made famous in the United Kingdom by stand-up comedian and lifelong resident Sir Ken Dodd, as the home of the dwarfish comic characters he called the Diddy Men. In his BBC children's television programme Ken Dodd and the Diddymen (1969), the fictitious Diddyland, boasting the highest sunshine rate in the world, was situated in the centre of Knotty Ash. The Diddy Men worked in the local "Jam Butty Mines". Knotty Ash was reportedly the site of the unsolved "Tiki" Murder in 1961 in which a housewife was killed in what was claimed to be a ritual linked to the worship of the Polynesian idol Tiki.
