ok . . . do my best! Here's an entry from "Wigan and Distric: a local Record" by Folkard printed by Starrs in 1916 and kept in the University of California, LA.

"Millgate. House built by Alexr. Radcliffe,
mayor, and leased by Thos. Whitehouse,
1785-1790. 3 views, front, liack, and
garden, water colours. 1826. [White-

Whitehouse's, Thomas, premises. Market
