Although it was one of the better-looking estate pubs of Wytheshawe, the Eagle on Greenbrow Road, Newall Green had a dodgy reputation which led to its closure. Cops called time on the Eagle in 2011 following gang-related violence and dealing.

The Eagle was a Marstons house in 1995 when Alan Winfield visited, and the brewery sign can just be seen in the above photo taken years before that. Following its closure, the Eagle was converted to a nursery which opened in 2012.
