Possibly on the Goose Green side, around Lady Lane, Ron?
Could it be the Slag Heaps at top of Belle Green Lane - Kirkless area Ince ?
Three Sisters at Bryn?
I'm pretty sure it's not Blundells, or as we used to call the area. 'The Tips'
Could be the early formation of the actual Yo-Yo.
It could be anywhere in the Wigan area
One slag heap looks like another however this is a big one,so logic dictates a very large pit nearby,Mick with goose green area could be a good guess, also loz with three sisters,When I was a youngun I used to play on a very large slag heap that became three sisters I remember the bull dozers putting them in heaps that was in Harold Wilsons era.
does not remind me of blundells in the late 50's/early 60's ,but it does have the railway line running the right way across goose green,bottom of duke st/ladies lane.
I remember stone picking at the 3 sisters, everyone thinks I made it up it was around 1969/70, does any one else remember
