Wheatsheaf Pub

Once stood on the corner of Queen St,Wallgate .

My Grandparents used to go in there,they only lived across the road at the top of Great George St.

Did Billy Boston run this Pub for a while?

I think he ran the Griffin  near Central park  Pepper

Yes He did Lolly, I thought He ran The Wheatsheaf at some time.

He was also landlord of the Bush in Higher Ince.  I'm  not sure  about the wheatsheaf.  Perhaps someone else knows

Have looked on Google..no mention of Billy running the Wheatsheaf,only the Griffin.

Looking at those old buildings...What would our town be like if they had ALL been kept and renovated, as in other English towns?

What a character we would have now throughout the town centre.

There are a lot of lovely buildings in and around Wigan. The swan and railway greets you as you come out of Wigan North western station
