Pictured above in the 1950s, the Grapes was a big public house owned by the Manchester Brewery, Walker & Homfray and Wilsons Brewery over the years.  The Grapes was at No.7 Booth Street West on the corner with Jenkinson Street and closed in 1968 [2].   The entrance to the Royal Northern College of Music marks the old location of the Grapes.
