GALLERY: Wigan Today readers have their say on the borough's worst eyesores

Earlier this month we came up with a rogues’ gallery of the worst eyesores in Wigan and the surrounding area. The idea of this was to name and shame borough grot spots in the hope that it will lead to action being taken to remedy them.

Now we have turned the tables and asked readers what they think are the local landmarks and areas most in need of TLC. These are some of those identified.

1. A large part of Wigan town centre is transition at the moment, with all but the market hall razed of the old Galleries. It is an undoubted blot on the landscape at present but building work for new developments will be starting soon
