Pleasant Inn / Brewers Arms, Clarendon Street

Pleasant Inn, Clarendon Street, Chorlton-on-Medlock. (c) Bob Potts [1].

This pleasantly-named beerhouse started life as the Brewers Arms, opening in 1868 at No.6 Clarendon Street which was at the Oxford Road end.  Following a name-change, the Pleasant Inn was a Walkers of Warrington house and closed in 1935 [1,2].  Clarendon Street was eventually built over as the Mancunian Way now passes over Oxford Road where it once ran.
