Fair enough - you'd probably know that better than me in that case.
I wonder why the top (Upholland) end of the village was in with 01695, though? Not that it's important - just curious really.

Well according to the sign on the road Warrington begins about a 1/2 a mile down Winwick Lane so I doubt it.

I'll give you that.
There were rumours that the St Helens code was going to become 027. About 1989, I think.

These postcodes can be quite confusing,so to stop the confusion at St Helens on match day the postcode as been changed to the following (especially when it is windy,it is a combination of letters and numbers.
OH DEAR 999 OH DEAR.
Just a bit of fun my Saints friends,in nearly 60 years of watching Wigan I have allways felt more welcome at Saints that any other ground.
My sense of humour can get the better of me at times,plus 4 pints of mild (the strong stuff) helps it.

Who cares about the High School your sons/daughters go to? Frankly it's about as difficult to get an A grade at GC (Easy) SE as it is to put on a hat.
Just make sure they get into Winstanley College. Surely the best A Level College in Wigan?

But a school for borderline pupils. If the kids aren't quite at the level they wantthen they don't want to know. We were lucky but I know of quite a few who weren't.
John Rigby is a more "caring" college.
I've had kids/grandkids go to both.
