momac,I love your comment about the freedom we had as children.It is one of the things that really sticks in my memory.We would be out of the house for hours and think nothing of walking to Haigh Hall or Gathurst and Appley Bridge stopping for little adventures on the way.We certainly arrived during the best of times to be a child.

I am making a list of back street shops of Wigan.There were so many of them and I don't think they are listed anywhere.In York Street alone we had 8 shops catering for most needs.Let me know the names of the shops that you remember....Harry is good at this.
