The George is shown here, apparently in the mid-1960s, on the corner of Radnor Street and Pindor Street in Hulme. All the houses around it have been pulled down for the first wave of slum clearance. It closed in 1969 as a Tetley's house, having previously been a Charrington and Walker Cains house [2]. A small stretch of Radnor Street still exists today, at the back of ASDA's on Princess Parkway
