Introduction
Wigan Building Preservation Trust is assisting the Queen's Hall Methodist Mission with their Transformation.
Read about the Queen's Hall Transformation
The Queens Hall has been a landmark in Wigan since 1907. It has a wide and varied history which you can read about here.
For several years, problems have been experienced with trees and vegetation growing in and around our cupola.
The Queens Hall is a grade 2 listed building, and as such, needs urgent action to repair and renovate the "at-risk" façade sympathetically.
