Albion Inn, Under Lane

Albion Inn, Under Lane, Hollinwood. (c) rightmove.

The Albion Inn closed in November 2011 and has recently been converted into offices of, somewhat ironically, a demolition company [1].  This nondescript little pub stood at junction of Under Lane and Drury Lane in Hollinwood and was a Lees pub on closure.

The Albion Inn opened in 1867 and was named after the mill whose workers supplied a lots of its trade.  Albion Mill shut in 1938 and housing the area was replaced by light industry [2], just one factor which led to its demise.
