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

Hi.
Appreciate knowledge/thoughts on a birth certificate actual location.

The certificate indicates a born location in 1851 as Bolton's yard, Hardybutts. This is stated twice and is definitely Hardybutts.

However checking on wiganworld. Bolton's yard appears to be in Hallgate.

My questions are...
a) Would Hallgate be classed as Hardybutts and the location here is correct or
b) Was there another Bolton's yard to the east of the town focused on Hardybutts Street/Area.

Hope this makes sense LOL
