Wigan Pier on the Leeds and Liverpool Canal...The original "pier" at Wigan was a coal loading staithe, where wagons from a nearby colliery were unloaded into waiting barges on the canal, and is believed to have been demolished in 1929, with the iron from the tippler (a mechanism for tipping coal into the barges) being sold as scrap..Photography by Jason Bye.Credit Mandatory.t: 07966 173 930.e: mail@jasonbye.com.w: http://www.jasonbye.com.
