Photo-a-Day (Thursday, 23rd February, 2012)

History Shop by Andrew Fishburn (Canon EOS 5D)

View of the Museum of Wigan Life (History Shop) against a background of the new baths.

Looking at the architecture of both buildings, I know which I prefer. The history shop may be neglected but it is far superior to the Lego building. Also on the new Life centre,the designers have provided access to the roof by way of a nice ladder. I wonder if it is alarmed.

What an excellent contrast between the highly attractive architecture of an earlier age, and what passes for design these days. Does anybody in Wigan prefer the modern version? I, for one, do not.

A more natural look of Wigan.

there is a place for modern and older buildings - Look at any major city and you will see examples everywhere.

Comment by irene roberts on 23rd February 2012 at 09:06

Would someone tell Wigan Council where they can buy some more lego as they appear to have run out of bricks. Besides looking like a prison, the place looks half-finished.
