History of Wigan (Help with ancient and recent history.)
Started by: xenon (103)
I remember the butchers on Frog Lane very well Golden Bear. I was born and lived in Prescott Street until I was Nineteen.Morris' butchers or "Colins" as we called it was one of our favorite shops when we were kids. Colin always had a joke for us and used to take us to the what we called "the back building" to get bones for the dog.If I remember rightly there was a post office next door and a couple of houses before Field Street,there was also a corner shop on the corner of Lower St Steven Street that we knew as Sids and went there just for bread - can't remember why!
