Trencherfield Mill
Heritage Way Wigan Pier Quarter, Wigan WN3 4EF England
**This place is temporarily closed.** Unfortunatley as of January 2019 the engineering staff at the Trencherfield Steam Engine Museum have been made redundant. Consequently the Mill will be closed to visitors and is unlikely to be in steam for a while. - The Mill will not be permenantly closed and will hopefully be reopening to visitors in the not too distant future.
