This Pub is Permanently Closed

Converted 2/6/2011 to a Sainsburys local store. Closed c.1/6/2005. Planning Application 093493/LO/2010/S1 | LISTED BUILDING CONSENT for part demolition of existing ground floor rear extension, two storey extension to the rear fronting Burton Road, internal works to facilitate change of use of building and repair and repainting of stone columns and railings. Granted 10/9/2010.

History: A landmark building in Withington. In its latter days it was styled the Withington Ale House, it sold Wilsons Bitter, Websters Bitter, and Choice. The very large interior had been heavily rusticated to echo what the big brewers considered an 'ale house' theme look at the time.

Historic Interest

Former Wilsons house, the White Lion. In 1904 it was acquired with Kay & Whittaker's Brewery, to become a Wilsons Brewery house.
