And Pemberton was a place in it's own right until 1904 when it was annexed by Wigan, maybe Wigan wanted the coal wealth of Pemberton ?

Was there and if so where was Pemberton Town Hall ?

On an old map from 1914 there is a building called Central Hall in Pemberton which is linked to a complex of buildings behind it LINK that building looks to have been replaced by buildings built post WW2, and they are where the Heron Store is located in Pemberton now, but on the front of those buildings there is a stone plaque, which looks to me as though it came from the buildings which were there before those buildings were built, and the name on the plaque is 'Central Buildings' LINK and the location would have had the old Pemberton Town Hall, Police Station and the main Church of England (St John's) Church in the same place, so that must be where the old Pemberton Town Hall was located
