Wigan Album

It was on the corner of Wallgate and King St West, Ron. The advertising hoarding and posters that can be seen are on the corner of King St West and Clarence Yard, where the present day Westward House stands.

As you state Ron, I can only remembering it being on the corner, unless over the years they expanded their shop. My parents bought their first bedroom suite from Hellers.

There was an upmarket furniture store. actually in King Street, opposite the County cinema, for the life of me I cannot remember the name. Was that also Hellers?.

Choc-a-bloc innit?

It looks like Black Friday sale day there.

Arrrgh, every time I get near finishing a building based on what info I have been able to find along come someone and posts something like this!
But thanks for posting it Ron, it has answered a couple of points for me, for those who havent seen what I am attempting to do please have a look in Messageboards/Hobbies/ My model Railway.
Ron is the original scan any bigger than that posted? I so could I get a copy. email debnkev.taylor@gmail.com or anything else in this area (particularly Middleton and Woods next door to Hellers )

Don't know if my memory is playing up but somewhere in the back of my mind I seem to recall reading somewhere that this store was opened by Gracie Fields.
