Crown & Shuttle, Long Millgate


Former site of Crown & Shuttle, Corporation Street. (c) googlemaps.

On this corner which gives stunning views of the Co-Op development these days, used to stand the Old Crown & Shuttle, run by Alice Barlow in the mid 1800s [1].  The at risk Ducie Bridge stands opposite on the other side of Miller Street, and back then this stretch of Corporation Street was Long Millgate.
