Bulls Head, Woodward Street

Bulls Head, Woodward Street, Ancoats. (c) Neil Richardson [1].

The Bulls Head was a fully licensed public house on Woodward Street, just south of Butler street in the northern part of Ancoats.  It opened in the early 1850s and, as a Walker & Homfrays house, closed after reaching its century in 1958 [1].  This top stretch of Woodward Street is a sorry sight these days with all the old council houses condemned and boarded up in the 2008 shot, below (this is from the opposite angle to the 1950s photo, above).
