Published by Brian on Monday 8th April 2024

Wigan had many pits back in the day. I've just added a list of pits and collieries around Wigan and nearby towns, there are over 300 listed along with their locations.

John Pit, Standish Lower Ground.

View the list of Wigan Pits.

Thanks go to Ron Hunt for sending the list.

Hello, I'm Gaby from Argentina, how are you all? I have a great friend in Wigan Mike PEEL, thanks to him I met Wigan and I love it, unfortunately many years ago I lost contact, my phone was stolen and I couldn't get his number back and I don't think he's much of a social media guy, if you see him just tell him Gaby, his long-time friend from Argentina, sends you greetings. Thank you, beautiful people.
