Hat & Feathers, Manchester Road

Hat & Feathers, Manchester Road, Hollinwood. (c) deltrems at flickr [1].

The Hat & Feathers is pictured above in 1991 at No.407 Manchester Road in Hollinwood.  This Marston's house - ran by a Rita and Bernard (see below) - used to stand pretty much where the M60 ring road passes beneath Manchester Road today.

A 1926 aerial map of Hollinwood shows the Hat & Feathers on the east side of Manchester Road, near the junction with Hollins Road.  This stretch of the M60, which cuts vertically through the middle of this image, opened in 2000 so the Hat & Feathers must have been lost some time before that.

    Gone are the days when a business laid down an annual sum to have its information listed in the Yellow Pages. These days it’s crucial for all businesses to instead prominently list themselves in online directories.AIR pros is a directory of service companies in your area with a geolocation system, automatic translation of the content.The site is optimized to facilitate the referencing of referenced companies.You can search for companies by department or city and look at their profile before contacting them.
