Wigan Album

Wanted - Your Old Photographs

Old photographs wanted to build up an online collection. Anything to do with Wigan, including walking days, street parties, school class photographs, streets, etc.

Please help, everyone has a photo album - it would be good to build up a busy, online archive of old photos.
