Yes it's the one in Frog Lane Now owned by Phil Clarke. and what a fantastic job he had done on renovating it. Well Done Phil. for saving one of Wigan's historical buildings.

Wow Ron, this is a great photo - taken just inside the gatehouse (the gatepost are a remnant of the previous hall when Frog Lane passed just in front of them). We excavated this area looking for the old lane between 2010 and 2014 and found the the bases of these posts in 2013 (https://www.wiganarchsoc.co.uk/blog/?page_id=516 ) - wish we'd had this photo to know exactly what we had found the remains of.
