Re: this site

Hi Judy, and welcome -

You're not misusing this site - visitors are welcome. I've posted the message you sent to me.

Park Lane is in Bryn, which is part of Wigan. The non-conformist chapel there dates back to the late 17th Century - if you google for 'park lane chapel' you will find a history.

Hi Judy

This site is used a lot for people researching family history and you will find that people can be very helpful. Quite a few people that use the site are interested in the history of our area. You are very welcome and if we can help then we will.

I do believe that Park Lane Chapel is the oldest church in the Ashton area.
