Is it the name of a street you’re looking for, Oy, or something else? Question

by Maureen Mon Mar 23, 2020 6:50 pm

Is it Queensway.

I’m so stumped I might have been ~~trying to cheat~~ seeking help - postboxmap.com - but I’m still none the wiser. Very Happy

Wherever it is I want that car Very Happy

It's Poolstock Lane Wink

by Lolly Tue Mar 24, 2020 6:42 pm

Does the PO still collect at that post box? Very Happy

by **Admin** Tue Mar 24, 2020 6:43 pm

Looks like a beautiful place in the Spring.

My ID card from 1946 says I lived in Poolstock then. I'll bet it did not look like this back then. Are those houses post war?

I think so - in fact I think they moved it from closer to the junction a while back.

Any ideas what this brass plaque could be about? Question

by Lolly Thu Mar 26, 2020 2:55 pm

At a guess I'd say its something to do with locks

by jo anne Thu Mar 26, 2020 5:42 pm

You’re right with your guess, Lolly Smile

Wigan Top Lock - Lock No.65 (Lock No.I) - Wigan Bottom Lock - Lock No.85 (Lock No.XXI)

Historic England Listings: Lock No.s I - XIII, Lock No.s XIV - XX, Lock No. XXI

(Two further Wigan locks are numbered XXII and XXIII)

by **Admin** Thu Mar 26, 2020 5:52 pm

Well done, girls.

Here's to you

by **Admin** Thu Mar 26, 2020 6:32 pm

Just came across this on FB. Lock 18, Wigan. People are asking where/what is the chimney in the background? Anyone?

by jo anne Thu Mar 26, 2020 6:47 pm

This is the photo on Timepix, Admin.

I soon lose my bearings, but could it be Westwood Power Station?
