Panoramic photo of school staff and pupils at the Girls' High School. Undated print but likely early 1930's. Print comes from my mother, Margaret Lang, who lived in Pemberton at the time and is likely on there somewhere. Another copy of this image has been posted before but only part - getting everything in is not easy. This version had to be built using 6 scans, stitched together in panoramic photo processing software.

Hi Andrew, well done stitching the scans together. I can't read the date, if any, below the photo, could it be 1931 see Item 34029 photos 1,2 and 3.
Looks like Item 34029 is the same style of photo but a different year. Our print is undated but item 468 looks to be the same one as ours ( but showing only the left most part ) and has been given the date 1933. I had to drop the image resolution quite a bit to load here on Wiganworld. For anyone looking to, perhaps, identify individuals and therefore in need of a better detailed version, there is one loaded to Microsoft OneDrive here https://1drv.ms/u/s!AubfZ84-nqNqlSJ9r6h47GI7I5TN?e=xUKMuD
