Church Inn, Chester Street

Church Inn, Chester Street, Hulme. (c) Bob Potts [1].

The Church Inn was at No.24 Chester Street and is pictured above in an old 1907 photo [1].  It opened in 1840 and lasted until 1923 as a Groves & Whitnall house [1,2].  The Church was towards the Great Jackson Street end of Chester Street; this part of the street was lost when the lovely Hulme 'redbricks' (Bentley House) estate was built.
