According to a local researcher there was formerly a pub named the Robin Hood on Church Street, just north of the Tib Street/Church Street junction, in Manchester. It was adjacent to a row of warehouses that were demolished 'years ago' (as of 2010) when a large car park was established there.[1]
The pub is not included on any of the O.S. maps listed below. Early O.S. maps tend to include relatively little detail on businesses in urban areas.Template:PnItemQry
