This Pub is Permanently Closed
Converted 10/3/2016 to Rainbows Day Nursery. Closed 1/2/2016. Planning Application 110416/FU/2015/S2 | Change of use from public house (Class A4) to nursery (Class D1). Granted 8/1/2016.
History: Large former inter-wars Wilsons house, set on a prominent corner of one of Manchester's major corridors. Became a most welcome conversion to cask ale in early 2013. That was a short-lived experiment, and sadly the cask disappeared. After a period of closure in early 2015 it was good to see it open again, albeit still without cask ale. It consisted of two large rooms, smartly decorated, which were fully separated by the bar. Well used at weekends as a venue for entertainment and live bands - outside posters/banners gave fuller information. Letterly managed by Trust Inns.
Historic Interest
In 1949 it became a Wilsons Brewery / Entrepreneur house following merger with Walker & Homfray's Brewery, originally was a Walker & Homfray's Brewery house, the Mauldeth Hotel.
