Yorkshire House, Hall Street

Yorkshire House, Hall Street, Chorlton-on-Medlock, 1912. (c) Bob Potts [1].

The Yorkshire House was a small beerhouse on the corner of Renshaw Street and Hall Street.  Today, this equates to just north-west of where Boundary Lane and Burlington Street meet at Greenheys Lane.  The Yorkshire House was a Walkers of Warrington house, previously known as the Wheatsheaf, and it closed in 1926.  Licensee Charles Turtle is pictured outside exactly a century ago [1].
