I'm so impressed by all the beautiful pictures and history about Wigan. It's beautiful and now i realize when my friend says, if i speak Wigan you'll not be able to unterstand me, she was right. I checked out the Wigan Dialect & Wigan Speyk and was amazed, to say the least. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to be able to visit such a site and i would be pleased to visit there sometime in the future as i just love the buildings, especially the churches.

Loved the picture of the "Knoker-upper!" Wrote a children's book about a knocker-up named MARY SMITH, who was from the East End of London. I'm always looking for images of knocker-ups, and this is one of the best photos I've ever found. I love the gigantic clock in his hand. Thank you.

My Mum was born and raised in Wigan, came to Australia in the 1960's, married my Dad (an Aussie) and stayed. I have been lucky to visit Wigan many times and miss it terribly. I have always found the people wonderful and consider Wigan my second home. I miss it terribly and look forward to visiting again soon. This site is great, its a wonderful way of walking down memory lane and it helps a great deal when the homesickness gets really bad.

wigan is the coolest place in england. wigan is the coolest place to live and i cant wait for the new shopping centre in town to be complete.the vandalism at winstanley precinct is awful and i hope this can be improved very soon.XxXxXxXxX

parents from wigan, migrated to australia around 1966-67, looking for any one who is related to my late mother Eileen Margaret Shaw nee Bennett, passed away 1989. want to find out more about her family.

This site is a very nice site very easy to explore all my family were from Wigan and i visited there in 1948 and 1957 i don't remember much of the first time but the second time i do and it is really intresting to browse your site for memories from the past that i had seen and the places i missed but heard about from my parents thank you very much for your time and efforts to keep the memories alive.

I would dearly like to hear from anyone that knows about Westwood House, Wigan. I am currently rewriting the biography of Lord Sydney (Thomas Townshend) and one of the mysteries surrounding him involves the Walmesleys of Dunkenhalgh who I think ended up at Westwood House, Wigan. In particular I am interested in Bishop Charles Walmesley who communicated on various occasions with Edmund Burke (a close colleague of Ld Sydney) or his sister Sarah Walmesley (b. at Wigan) who may have married a relative of Ld Sydney, Richard Townshend. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Brian Ruddock get yrself back on this site n make yrself known. Was owt wiv yr Razor last wik

hiyaz wigan world is gr8 for fondin things lol

I have visited wigan many times over the last 21 years,I married a Wigan lad Jimmy McDermott from
Whitley.I have so many wonderful memories of Wigan and would happily live in Wigan if only I could persuade my husband to move.I will always consider Wigan my second home and really enjoyed the website.The only regret I have was Central Park being turned into tesco,we did a lot of our courting there.

i found wiganworld very good to be on but there are some people on there that are so rude ignorant and all seem to stick together. newcomers are not made very welcome if they say something wrong ( but i did like the site )

Wigan is a great place with great people that I miss. Does anyone remember me I wonder? I worked at Lowthers cakes, from 1989 til I left to have my son in 1992. He was born at Billinge. I lived in New Springs, and I loved it there. A special person there is in my thoughts.

I LIVE IN WIGAN AND WILL ALL MY LIFE, BEST TOWN IN THE WORLD I WOULD NOT MOVE OUT OF WIGAN FOR THE WORLD.

as for the lady who wanted her wedding at haigh hall, go for it! i used to work there and it is a great setup , every week families had the best of times, and so they should its their big day after all!!

What a good site, does anyone know if the French Market is coming back to Wigan?
