Wigan Album

What a pitiful sight it is at the moment with broken and boarded up windows, my wifes family were the tenants for 35 years until 1965, her grandfather Tom Houghton was the landlord and she and her parents also lived there. I did all my courting in there and it grieves me to see it in this state. Old Tom would turn in his grave.

we used to have the pack horse facing it my dad was ralph birch

My Father inlaw Frank Richards had it for a while, absolute shame to see it in that state.

Silcocks Fair would open here, 1911 census.
