ANOTHER multi-award winning attraction, Wigan Pier is truly a day of fun for all the family.

Take an unforgettable journey through time and visit the Victorian classroom -- watch out for the strict schoolteachers though!

Walk through the recreated coal mine and you'll appreciate the horrors men, and children, had to face on a daily basis.

Visit Piper Alley and watch youngsters play traditional street games before going to the seaside or even the old time music hall. Then take a trip across the canal to Opie's Museum of Memories -- an interactive tour through 100 years of domestic life in Britain -- before visiting Trencherfield Mill, the world's largest original working mill steam engine.

Where to find Wigan Pier: By road, follow the brown and white Wigan Pier signs from all major road networks. By rail, Wigan North Western and Wigan Wallgate stations are both five minutes walk from Wigan Pier. Tel 01942 323666.
