The end of the line at Springs Branch
Once a busy line, serving collieries, iron works, and wagon works, linking them to the main London - Glasgow line - it is reduced to being somewhere to shunt scrap rolling stock.

Scrap locos on Springs Branch
Everything reusable has been stripped from these locos at the EWS Depot here. Over the next few months the shells were transported out on low-loaders for final disposal.

Alfred Waterhouse in Ince-in-Makerfield
The Lodge and Chapels for the township of Ince, in Warrington Road, Lower Ince, were designed by the famous and prolific Liverpool-born Architect Alfred Waterhouse in 1855. Although the Lodge is now in private ownership and has been renovated in recent years, the Chapels are still owned by Wigan Council and have received no care or maintenance for many years. This is the Non-conformist Chapel. It is much more ornate than the adjacent C of E Chapel having a mini-apse at the East end, and an elaborate doorway at the West end. All the buildings are Grade 2 Listed, but this does not guarantee the Chapels' survival, sadly.
