Spread Eagle, Every Street

Spread Eagle, Every Street, Ancoats, 1930s. (c) Neil Richardson [1].

The Spread Eagle was the oldest pub of Every Street in Ancoats, dating back to the 1820s when it opened opposite the All Saints Church.  Shown here in 1963 on the corner with the lost Holme Street, the Threlfalls house closed a few years later in 1967 [1].  Wide grass banking runs this length of Every Street today.
