Linwood, Warwick Street

Seen here in 1963 on the corner of Linwood Street and Warwick Street, the Linwood Hotel was a Tetley's house when it closed in 1967 [1] for the first redevelopment of Hulme. It had opened 95 years earlier in 1872 and was a Chesters boozer before it passed to the Leeds brewery [2].  The former location of the Linwood was roughly where Aquarius Street is in today's modern Hulme.
