City View Inn, Dyson Street

City View Inn, Dyson Street, Miles Platting. (c) Bill Phillips at manmates [1].

The City View Inn stood on the corner of Lewis Street and Dyson Street in Miles Platting.  This north-eastern district of inner city Manchester just off Oldham Road was largely razed to the ground and redeveloped into council housing by the ever-wise Manchester City Council in the 1960s and '70s.  This undoubtedly saw off the City View Inn, however, a short stretch of Lewis Street still runs just south of Varley Street.
