A great memorable photo Ron. I suppose M&S rivalled that other big store at the time C&A (Coats & 'Ats) lol

I'm not sure C&As was in Wigan at this time. I seem to recall it opening in the mid 1960s.

I think the lady 6th from the left facing is called Beryll

Isn't the lady in the dark cardigan, seated in the middle, Peggy Porter?
