Summary
[edit]DescriptionThe Old Wellington and Sinclairs Oyster Bar, Manchester - geograph.org.uk - 1423552.jpg |
English: The Old Wellington and Sinclairs Oyster Bar, Manchester Dating back to 1550, The Old Wellington pub is a Grade Two listed building which is reputed to be one of Manchesters oldest buildings. It was originally situated in The Shambles, which was, for centuries, an important market area. The earliest reference to a building on the site appears in 1328 although detailed analysis has put the actual date of construction of the current building circa 1550. Originally built by the Ratcliffes of Ordsall, the most famous occupants were the Byrom family, whose fortunes were founded on a highly successful drapery business. John Byrom born in the house was famed as inventing a system of phonetic shorthand, the forerunner of Pitmans shorthand. Sinclair's Oyster Bar dates from 1720
The Old Wellington has stood the test of time, surviving wars, a terrorist bomb and city redevelopment. This last redevelopment activity saw the building painstakingly dismantled, relocated 100 metres and identically reassembled. The Old Wellington reopened in its current location, gateway to the citys medieval quarter, late in 1999. http://www.enjoyengland.com/ideas/food-and-drink/drink/beer/historic-pubs/the-old-wellington.aspx |
