Prince of Wales, Collyhurst Street

Prince of Wales, Collyhurst Street, Collyhurst. (c) Bob Potts [1].

The Prince of Wales, a Threlfalls house, is shown above in the 1950s before a pub outing for the regulars.  At No.2 Collyhurst Street just off Rochdale Road, the Prince of Wales opened in 1852 and had over a century of serving before being closed and demolished in 1961 under a compulsory purchase order [1].
