History of Wigan (Help with ancient and recent history.)
Started by: tonker (27933)
The English civil war ended in 1649. The battle of Wigan Lane took place in 1651, some two years later.
It was between the troops of the King of Scotland and the troops of the Lord Protector of England.
Two different countries ruled by two different factions.
That is not 'civil war'.
