Schreiber Depot
The Geograph website is simply a sales promotion device for GPS navigation! (Remember where you heard it first, folks!). This is pretty confusing terrain. I couldn't believe I was where I was until I spotted the mobile phone mast - which is definitely at SD614055.

Bridge over the Whelley Loop Line
The line was an avoiding line for the West Coast Main Line, by-passing Wigan. It left the WCML south of Springs Branch sheds, and rejoined it south of Standish. It is now a cycling route.

Country Lane in Higher Ince
As towns spread out in the 19th century, the lanes in the surrounding countryside were gradually urbanised, or upgraded to serve the needs of the growing towns. Some, however, were spared development, and remain much as they were, such as this one, leading through fields and woods from an industrial estate in Higher Ince to Hindley.
