Comet Inn, Lower King Street (West)

Former location of Comet Inn, Lower King Street (West). (c) googlemaps.

These days this grim 1960s building on King Street West houses some low-brow shops including a Greggs, but in the mid 1880s, the Comet Inn stood here.  To the rear of the pub was Garden Lane; to the right was Lofthouse Court and the street itself was known as Lower King Street [1].
