These maps are highly detailed. They are taken from the OS 1:2,500 (or 25 inch) maps and reduced to about 15 inches to the mile. They show streets with individual houses, tram tracks, railway tracks and even signals, factories, wharves and such details as fountains and water troughs. They will provide hours of fascination for historians and genealogists. The maps are neatly folded and each includes a specially written introduction to the area.

There are two versions of this map, showing how the area developed across the years. They are very detailed and busy maps, covering the central area of Wigan, plus part of Ince in Makerfield. Coverage stretches from Wallgate eastward to Belle Green Lane, and from the Gidlow Mill (extreme top left corner) southward to Chapel Lane. The many features include the town centre, with Market Hall, church, Mining College, Standishgate, Wallgate, Hallgate, King Street, Library Street etc; railways, including the NW, Wallgate and Central stations, with track layouts given; part of the LNWR Springs Branch and Lancashire Union lines, including Round House Junction and part of Round House Branch; Leeds & Liverpool Canal, including flight of locks; Rose Bridge Collieries, Ince Hall Colliery (East Pit), Round House Colliery, old shafts, Clarington Forge; Kirkless Hall, Ince Hall, Peel Hall, Manchester Road, Higher Ince, tramways, Scholes, Longshoot, Central Park football ground.
On the reverse is a list of private residents from a 1918 directory (1907 map) and further historical material from the directory (1928 map).

The map links up with sheets 93.04 Wigan North to the north, 93.07 Wigan West to the west, 94.05 Kirkless to the east and 93.12 Ince in Makerfield to the south.
