Makinson's that sold fireplaces was there and further down was Elim Pentecostal church, there was also a Methodist chapel a little further down too, Makinson's also used the old station as a showroom too, the buildings were demolished as the council was planning on extending the Civic Centre, though it never happened.

The floodlights at Springfield Park in the distance. Happy memories!!
It's criminal the way the council have trashed our town.
i think the first Morrisons wigan was built on the car park, it was like a temporary building made from tin if i am not mistaken.
