The Clough Hotel on Hall Moss Road in Blackley / Charlestown finally succumbed to fire in November 2006 after yet another blaze finally brought it to the ground.

The images here are from October 2006 after a previous fire, and firefighters claimed arsonists had torched the Clough Hotel six times in a two-week period [2].

The Clough was one of the best-known pubs in the area when it was a Whitbread house with its bowling green.

Nothing has been done with the site of the old pub since demolition.

    Wow, that's a magnificent pub that wouldn't have looked out of place in the Birmingham suburbs. I never knew it existed, tbh

    Many happy memories growing up in this pub in the 80s and 90s

    I grew up running round the bowling green of this pub when I was 5 in 1952. Grandad played bowls there. We lived on Grange Drive.
