Vine, Jersey Street

The Vine beerhouse stood on the corner of Jersey Street and Murray Street in old Ancoats.  It opened in the 1860s and closed as a Walkers of Warrington house in 1927 [1].

The Vine was bought from the brewery in around 1919 by Vincents, an ice-cream company [2], so common in Manchester's Little Italy.  It faced the Church Inn which is a more recent loss.
