This is great. Have not been back to Bryn. where I was born, for about 7 years and when I did visit could not recognise most of it Wigan was the place we used to go to do "real" shopping. Freda is very familiar and myfamily name loally was Bromelow altho I believe it was Brimelow. Left the area when I joined the ATS and never went back to live since I married a Southerner!!! Best of luck to the web site. Will follow with interest

This is the best site I've come across yet for anything to do with Wigan. Long may it continue.

The pics on this site are brilliant and been back on here everyday since I found out about the site. I work at civic Centre right next door to the new Grand Arcade and only get to hear and see the external building work - it's great to sneak a preview inside of where I am probably gonna spend most of my lunch hours!! I have already recommended the site to all my work colleagues.

This is such an amazing web-site! It not only provides great information on Wigan but it also allows people to interact. My favorite sections are the poetry, quiz and images section. Wiganworld, opens the beautiful world of Wigan to all those who aren't able to appreciate all it's beauty.
