General Peel, Robert Hall Street

Just off Oldfield Road, the General Peel stood on the corner of Trafford Street (now gone) and Robert Hall Street in Ordsall.  The original General Peel was pulled down in 1873 and its replacement was a Cornbrook Brewery house which passed to Boddingtons in the early 1900s.  The General Peel lasted until 1972 when it was yet another victim of the redevelopment of Ordsall, and its replacement is the Ordsall Neighbourhood Office community centre.
