About Hindley and the 01942 Area Code
Wigan is a large town in Greater Manchester with a history stretching back to Roman times, when it was the settlement of Coccium on the road from Chester to Carlisle. The town became one of the great centres of the Lancashire coalfield, with coal mining recorded as early as 1450, and its industrial heritage also encompasses cotton spinning, iron founding, and engineering. George Orwell's 1937 book The Road to Wigan Pier brought national attention to the town's working-class conditions, and the Wigan Pier Quarter on the Leeds and Liverpool Canal has since been redeveloped as a heritage and leisure destination. Wigan Warriors, founded in 1872, are one of the most successful rugby league clubs in the world.
The 01942 exchanges serve the towns and districts surrounding Wigan. Leigh is a town with deep coal-mining roots and a proud rugby league tradition of its own through Leigh Leopards. Atherton and Hindley were colliery towns that have diversified into light industry and distribution. Ashton-in-Makerfield has a history of coal mining and clock-making, and hosts one of the traditional Lancashire fairs at its parish church of St Thomas. Aspull sits on higher ground to the north of Wigan, overlooking the Douglas valley, in an area that has retained patches of ancient woodland amid the former colliery landscape.
A 01942 virtual phone number positions your business in one of Greater Manchester's most significant towns, benefiting from excellent motorway access via the M6 and M61, ongoing town centre regeneration, and a large catchment area spanning the historic Lancashire coalfield communities.
