'It's the end of an era' - Popular Irish pub closes its doors for a final time after 32 years

A popular Irish pub that’s been at the heart of its community for 32 years will close its doors for a final time tonight.

Earlier this year, Levenshulme favourite Fiddlers Green confirmed it would be shutting up shop some time after St Patricks Day. The announcement was met by an outpouring of love online with the pub's loyal customers left 'gutted' after branding it the "best pub" in Manchester.

Owners Bridie and James decided to sell the the pub and retire in order to spend more time with their family. The couple first bought the pub, formerly known as Dicey Riley's, in 1990 and despite planning to only run the pub for five to ten years, have stayed for over three decades.
