Where 'dis den?

A Wigan puzzle picture for you to identify....

Lolly will know where this is. Mo, also, as she used to live on this road......

Tis Lamberhead Rd Fred..I'm sure,walked up that road many times..now having said that I hope I'm right.

You are spot on, Mo. That is St John's churchyard wall where my mate and I (aged 11-12) would sit on a warm evening and put the world to right.

Ah.......good times, lass.

We used to come out of the Queen's cinema , at night , dare each other to walk through the church yard , panic half way across the church yard, run like s*£t and drop off that wall onto Lamberhead , and sanctuary . Innocent times.

Turn left and I could have been at your place for Liver and onions

It was the wall that I recognized Fred..memories..where would we be without them.

Lolly,you'd have been welcome.

Great comments, great memories.!!

It was flooded recently

I'll have a guess at Gathurst, coz it says so at the top of the picture.

Boooo....I must have been asleep...Boooo...

I have removed the identifying data on this one...

Does anybody recognise this scene?

Please Sir!!! I know this, Its heading to Wigan, I think its called Ellesmere Road, with Bullteel Street Joining on the left, and The Carnegie Library on the Right a little farther down.

I concur.  Old St Cuthberts school  on the right out of sight

The old Half way house pub not far from there if I remember right

Spot on folks. It's the old Carnegie Library off Ellesmere Rd and Ormskirk Rd. 

When I got married, aged 18, we lived on the left at 18 Ellesmere Rd.

WW gets the ceegar...

Old Wigan....

I believe that I do know this...but what do you think?




and this of course.....

The Swan and Railway Hotel just the other side of the bridge, was in the news recently, after a refurb

Of course that's Wallgate bridge Fred..my street was just out of sight to the left...of course all the shops were different and Queen street it seems didn't exist then.
