We’ve taken another dip into the Wigan Today archives to see what was happening exactly 10 years ago this month.
This gallery of pictures features school activities, protests against planning applications, Wigan Business Award winners and a couple celebrating a special anniversary.
They were all taken in the first 10 days of November 2016.
