Places   (Help with places, streets and buildings in Wigan.)

I remember a big gate in the hillside at Summersale where the bogeyman lived. if I went past with my dad I would get past it as quick as possible. I think it must have been an entry to a pit shaft because it was pitch black behind. If we were under mum's feet she would tell us to take the roller skates down to Summerale and play on the big tarmac road. I assume that was Sundays! I also remember going to an office with mum so I think she must have been after dad's wages.
