Wigan Album

Yes it is another good photo thanks for the back ground shot, Janice would just like to ask if it is OK to print some of your school and walking day photo's off for the school reunion in May

I think the tall lad 2nd from the right maybe Alan Slater and the one in the middle Joe Gilligan / Knowles? But I've been wrong before, so.....

Janet,
I think it's Billy Slater.
2nd left Les Walkden and extreme right, Alan Walker?

You are right Eric, I knew Alan didn't seem right, but I totally forgot Billy. I should have known, as he is in another BB photo.. Senior moment....that's my excuse .

Hi Dougie, yes Just print off which ever you need, i have quite a few more school and walking day photos mostly from the 40's and 50's but also a school one from 1909 i will put them on the album for you.

The building to the right of the White House is a warehouse belonging to Crompton's.
The gable end of the buildings further along will be Marl Bank, nubers 17& 19, Rectory Road.
