Globe Inn, Wesley Street

Globe Inn, Wesley Street, Ancoats. (c) Neil Richardson [1].

The Globe Inn was a beerhouse which stood on the end of a row of back-to-back houses on Wesley Street in Ancoats.  This street, which connected Woodward Street to Daniel Street, was later renamed Hudson Street, but today it has been replaced by this green space in front of this high-rise Woodward Street block of flats, as seen from Firbeck Drive.  The Globe was a Walkers of Warrington house and also sold provisions, closing in 1936 [1].
