Red Bull, Mason Street

The Red Bull once stood on the corner of Mason and Thompson Street in the now decaying area between the Manchester ends of Rochdale and Oldham Road, aka New Cross.  Seen here in 1965, and here in 1971 it looks in a slightly better state as Threlfalls house.  Since then it's been knocked down and replaced with this nondescript building.
