The Kings Arms stood on the A62 Manchester Road in Hollinwood, just north of the M60. It was a Holt's house and is pictured above in December 1988. The pub used to sell dregs for half price, a practice I can recall rumours of myself, but never had the pleasure of sampling.
@Pubs_of_Mcr Hollinwood. Boozed there in my 20's. £1 a pint. Half price for dregs.

The spot where the Kings Arms used to stand was on the east side of Manchester Road, just south of Irving Street, with Cardigan Road to the rear. Suspect it was the building of the M60 junction here that saw off the Kings Arms.
