Factory Tavern, Butler Street

Factory Tavern, Butler Street, Ancoats. (c) Neil Richardson [1].

The Factory Tavern opened in the 1860s near the corner of Elizabeth Street on Butler Street in what was previously a newspaper shop.  It lasted until 1933 (around when it was photographed) when it closed as a Walker's of Warrington house [1].  Today, this is the corner of Garforth Street and Butler Street.
