The Cyclists’ Touring Club is the first and oldest touring club in the world. It was founded in 1878. Cast iron plaques of the Winged Wheel that the club distributed 130 years ago to designate approved inns and hotels still remain on many buildings across the country. www.wingedwheels.info

Yes that's him Embarassed

by Donkey Oaty Sun 21 Feb 2021, 4:48 pm

That's an insult to monkeys,

or Tiggers, depending which side of the fence you are!

by jo anne Sun 21 Feb 2021, 4:54 pm

Well, I’m definitely not sitting on the fence, Donkey Oaty Very Happy

Does anyone know where you’d find Tigger near Wigan? Smile

by Lolly Sun 21 Feb 2021, 5:01 pm

Has he just come out of storage Jo anne?

by jo anne Sun 21 Feb 2021, 6:42 pm

He’s been up there a few years, Lolly, but perhaps his friend Pooh Bear could be in storage nearby.

by jo anne Sun 21 Feb 2021, 9:08 pm

Tigger featured on WW’s Photo-a-Day on 5th April 2019 and was less faded then.

The pic is by Mick and captioned ‘Security fence in Orrell Street, Wigan’

by jo anne Wed 24 Feb 2021, 12:16 pm

No, Maureen, if you think closer to the town centre then you’re on the right track.

by Maureen Wed 24 Feb 2021, 12:18 pm

On the old GPO wall...I've seen it somewhere.

by Lolly Wed 24 Feb 2021, 12:19 pm
