Wigan Album

The copy I have of this is captioned by Rector Christopher William Hutton (bearded, left, behind drum, flanked by two Curates): "On the way to Coppull. July 6th 1911"

Rev Long, thanks for pointing this photo in my direction.
Looks like they are coming up Rectory Lanes, possible from the Old Rectory with its extensive lawned gardens (Now the Owls at Standish) as a spacious gathering point.
The view is down towards The Market Place, with the parade touching onto Market Street and then entering Pole Street.
The Gable end of The Black Bull on the right and that row of cottages on the left are roughly where that block of flats now stands with Wok's Cooking and Mc Rob's on the ground floor.
Did they really walk all the way to Coppull?

I have just been to take another look.
I think that the co-op is roughly where the the row of two story terraced cottages are and that those set back further down with the longer gardens at the front is where the new block of flats stands.
