I was surprised to see the litter - especially as it was early days for the public to be able to walk in the grounds of Haigh Hall in the early fifties. I believe it was 1947 when the Hall was handed over to the Council for the people of Wigan. The people in the photo look smartly attired as well.

Julie, this was originally two photos posted by Stuart Liptrot #31545. I just stitched the two together. He dated them as early 1950s.
Rev David, it seems like we haven’t learned much since then as far as littering goes doesn’t it?
