Going off the cars on the car park I would date the photo mid to late 80s

This photograph was taken from the roof of Wigan college. Probably photographed in the 1980s as the cars include Metros, Montegos, Sierras, Mk2 Astras and Mk3 Escorts. St John Fisher school and Sacred Heart RC church is visible, but not the nearby St Andrews CE. Standish water tower on Green Lane and the West Lancashire countryside towards Appley Bridge and Parbold can be seen, and possibly the spire of the church on Parbold Hill.
This picture was taken by my late colleague Jon Snape from the roof of Wigan College in 1994.
