Places   (Help with places, streets and buildings in Wigan.)

pisolivadi If I remember we used to go to SJA meetings in Hindley. On Atherton Rd, on the opposite side of the road to the Monoco, there was a paint works or a paint store. We used a room there. I only joined so I could get a bugle and play in the band. No good at it though, must be tone deaf.
Yes my grandfather was the lollipop man for a while. He used to love that job. He lived at No9 Engineer St, and I was born there. My auntie Anne Capper had the shop across from the Engineers Arms. She finished up moving to Elgin Close up Belle Green Lane. Give my regards to John.
