Talbot, Wilcock Close

This Moss Side boozer has been lost to the latest wave of regeneration of the blighted inner city estate.  The Talbot stood somewhere on the short Wilcock Close, not far from Princess Parkway and Moss Lane East, but the photo gives no clue as to whereabouts, such is the change around here.  In the early 1990s it still had its Chesters signage and offered Chesters Bitter and Mild on cask, although Alan Winfield who has a photo of the Talbot at Pubs Galore, described it as "a very intimidating pub to have a drink in [1]."
