In 1870-72, John Marius Wilson's Imperial Gazetteer of England and Wales described Lostock Junction like this:
LOSTOCK-JUNCTION AND LOSTOCK-LANE, two railway stations in Lancashire; on the Bolton and Preston railway, 3 and 4 miles W of Bolton. The former station is at the junction of the railway to Wigan.
Lostock Junction is now part of BOLTON District. Click here for graphs and data of how BOLTON has changed over two centuries. For statistics about Lostock Junction itself, go to Statistics.
