One of the oldest pubs in Manchester city centre is not closing, yet - despite rumours circulating on social media. A Twitter post claimed The City boozer on Oldham Street in the Northern Quarter, was shutting 'for good' to the dismay of many.
The historic pub is more than 200 years old, among the oldest in the city, and would be a huge loss to the city centre. The Northern Quarter is well known for its new modern and trendy bars but boozers such as The City, the Castle Hotel opposite, The Wheatsheaf, The Millstone, The Unicorn and Gullivers have stayed strong for those looking for a more traditional feel.
The MEN visited the pub yesterday to see if there was any truth to these rumours, which to an unfortunate extent there is. However, there is still some hope for the pub.
