No Krystal, unfortunately I think the archives are kept in Leigh town hall.
I've just remembered that all the Mayors of the town, going back to when Adam was a lad, are named on bronze plaques around the walls in the Town Hall (Wigan) atrium. This is a place where weddings are done and other public functions. So at a guess, I'd say that you could pretty much be able to go in without too much fuss between ceremonies.
The Town Hall is a former college and the elaborate main door and steps are used by wedding parties as they leave. They enter via the ground floor reception area and are led upstairs. You can't just walk in and freely wander round.
Perhaps you could ring them in advance.
