The City View Inn stood on the corner of Lewis Street and Dyson Street in Miles Platting. This north-eastern district of inner city Manchester just off Oldham Road was largely razed to the ground and redeveloped into council housing by the ever-wise Manchester City Council in the 1960s and '70s. This undoubtedly saw off the City View Inn, however, a short stretch of Lewis Street still runs just south of Varley Street.
Doing my family tree.1881 census, my relative was the landlord of the City View Inn. His name was Thomas White,he lived there with his wife Sarah 6 children and in laws. He was the landlord for many years. John White.
