Hi Jim If you were born in Westleigh in local dialect you are a Westleyther, to be a Cowhead in local dialect a keawyed you must have been born in westhoughton the Kaewyeds seem to be quite proud of the legend, on the A6 Road that runs through westhoughton at Wingates there is a plaque on the wall with a cows head on it and the white Lion pub used to have a painting on the wall of a farmer with a saw and a cow with its head fast in the gate also the Red Lion pub used to have a room divider made up of a farm gate a cows head and a saw. The name Pie Eater is what people from Leigh call people from Wigan, this derives from the time that the Wigan and Leigh Miners came out on strike for better pay and conditions and after the suffering brought about by the strike the Wigan miners went back to work without gaining any improvement in their pay or conditions so the Leigh miners called the Wigan miners Pie Eaters because they eat Humble Pie. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
