Wigan Album

I' am almost certain this is just outside St Patricks Boys school. The shop on the righ( flag flying ) is Maggie Burke' s, later Ellis and Lizzie Green's. The alley at the side of the shop is leading to Manchester Place. Alas now long forgotten , my Uncle and Auntie lived there.

Great photograph. The shop is indeed "Maggie Greens". Maggie was my auntie, she married Ellis Green. My mother was Agnes Burke, Maggies sister, both born in John Street. Looking at the photographs of Walking Day brings back many memories.
