History of Wigan   (Help with ancient and recent history.)

McFarlane's Foundry was off Chapel Lane on either Woods or Bradford Street, they did cast a lot of manhole covers as they can be seen at many locations around town, a onetime friend of mine worked there in the late sixties until the early seventies when I presume it closed, the council was doing a lot of demolition around there at that time to make way for those industrial units that are still there.
