Spread Eagle Inn, Long Millgate

Former location of Spread Eagle Inn, Long Millgate (2). (c) googlemaps.

Five doors up from the Pheasant Inn on Long Millgate was the Spread Eagle Inn, marked 2 on the map.  The Spread Eagle also faced the Free Grammar School which was part of Chethams and also backed onto two courts, Ditchfield Court and Woollam's Court [1].  It was kept by Ellen Schofield in the 1850s as shown in the Slater's Directory [1].
