Station Inn, Fairfield Street

On what is now the Star & Garter's car park used to the stand the Station Inn, a Boddingtons house.  This opened around 1860 and had closed by 1902 [1].  In The Old Pubs of Ancoats, the Star & Garter is shown in less shabby days in the 1960s and the adjoining building on its left is probably the old Station Inn.   Said building can just about be seen here in the 1970s.
