Welcome to Photos of Wigan, a project I started many years ago to showcase my hometown of Wigan in the North West of England, UK. I hope to share all the great things that the town has to offer, from its tough and gritty industrial heritage to its wide open green spaces. The collection of images celebrates everything that makes the town what it is.

​

The photos will be displayed here in a blog format, so please do keep coming back to see the next set of images all of which have been taken and created by me as I travel the length and breadth of the town and its surrounding areas.
