It may be a nice photo but it isn't Wigan...

If it's Golborne it's in the metropolitan borough of Wigan.

Golborne must have been a lovely place back in the day. I have seen some beautiful pics of it. Apparently this is Dean dam, Rob Lane, Golborne.

It probably is Dean Dam Woods I remember a small cottage that had an inscription over the door it was in old English and made reference to one John Stirrup, there was also a freshwater spring to the rear.

Unless you put "Golborne Lancashire" when searching, you get Golborne in North West London. Maybe it's Dean Dam though?

I think that may be Old Woman's Well, near Castle Hill, Newton le Willows, Golborne boundary
