Places   (Help with places, streets and buildings in Wigan.)

A while back I was asking if anyone knew when the estate behind the Pit Pony on Lowbank Rd were built and the houses next to the Pit Pony. Looking on the old-maps.co.uk site appears to bring up the wrong map information (I've just checked that site and typing in the postcode for that area doesn't come up with any found results, though another postcode I typed in further afield did).

I've often thought that they were probably built around the late 60s/early-mid 70s, with the remaining bungalows and semis being a little later; the ones on Oriel Drive were clearly built in the late 80s/early 90s. However, I recently found a land registry document that states the approximate year of build for houses near the Pit Pony was 1980. Whether that's accurate or not I don't know. I would've thought the row of semis near the Pit Pony were built much earlier than that. Much of the estate behind Pit Pony seems to have been built around the late 60s and early 70s as other maps I've looked at seem to indicate this, so it's a bit odd those on Lowbank Rd were built later. What was there before them?. Seems like that estate was built in different stages over many years.
