Sedgeford Rd Manchester M40 8QU
I have been here before, notably, as recored on my Manchester Estate Pubs site.
The pub was open, but the Alan Boyson mural was in need of repair.
The missing panel, stored in the pub’s cellar was subsequently reinstated.
Then, following a Modernist crowdfunding project instigated by Richard Brook and Christopher Marsden, Alice Vincent-Barwood restored the work, during July 2022.
Sadly in August 2023 the pub lost its licence and remains closed.
Wandering from Town to Moston yesterday, I happened to pass by, so I took some photos, here they are:
Modern Mooch 
One of my favourites – full of desolate beauty and the surreal.
What a shame that the restored mural can’t be more appreciated now the pub has closed.
There is no visual similarity, but it also made me think of the club where Albert Finney (as Eddie Ginley) performs in Stephen Frears’s, Gumshoe 1971
