Millgate would be unrecognisable for anybody who emigrated to distant shores years ago. It could be any town anywhere. I suppose anyone under the age of 50 to 60 won’t remember it as it was.
Good photo though.

You are right Veronica....this could be anywhere other than the Wigan I knew.

I get told off for calling places "Lego-Land" but I don't know how else to describe this. If the cap fits.......

You are right Veronica. Before I left for Oz I remember Pennington's shop with the old Baths on the right and the Magistrates Court built alongside the Police Station.What a transformation.
