I couldn’t make the name out on the wall of the pub, just wondering if it’s The Spotted Cow.

I could be wrong here, but is it not St Thomas's church with the Vine Inn pub in the background?

You could be right I have just looked in my book but it doesn’t say which church Rich, which is strange. Now I can see The Vine as you have mentioned. It looks looks so familiar thought

The man on the extreme right looks like Alderman Harold Dowling,sometime Conservative candidate for Wigan, and a worshipper at St Thomas

The clergyman, though,looks more like Mr White of St James,Poolstock )
