Denmark, Moss Lane East, 11th November 1994. (c) Alan Winfield with permission.
The new Denmark was built by Hyde's Brewery to replace the grand old Denmark Hotel which once stood nearby at the junction of Denmark Road and Lloyd Street North. The new Denmark was a fairly smart estate pub whene Alan Winfield visited in Novemebr 1994, as kindly shown above (note the old 'Hydes Anvil' sign). The pub was sited adjacent to Whitworth Park, one of the Manchester's many inner city public space that once saw grander times, as described here at Manchester History. The Denmark is well-remembered by many older City fans, and it was right in front of our usual parking spot in the '80s and early '90s. The pub was knocked down, perhaps in the late '90s, and has been replaced with a Manchester Academy set-up - the same development has blocked off part of Acomb Street, on the corner of which the Denmark sat, slightly back off Moss Lane East.
