Old Wigan

It's marked as Market Place.1913

is that parish church on left ?

There is what looks like a church in he background. I'm trying to work out what the building was on the right.

I've had all the old photos on WW..but still can't make it out..is the curve going to the right possibly leading to Woolies.

I think it's Standish gate. Look at the top of the building on the left. on this pic That building would have been opposite what was Woolworth. Maybe Makinsons Arcade or the old Boots chemist.



There's a church in this pic further down Standish gate

I agree it is Standishgate with Haigh Hall in the background.Possibly taken from premises in Market Place. The churches I think are St.Paul's Congregational church set further back from the road  and in your last picture Dicconson Street Methodist Church.I remember the Electricity showrooms being in the mock tudor building next to the church and the Square Deal shop on the oposite corner of Dicconson Street.

I agree it's Standishgate. The tram is near Mesnes Street

Reet... let's fix it...
