The Three Crowns (Town Centre, OLDHAM)

The Three Crowns c.1965.

The Three Crowns was situated at 5 Manchester Street next to the One in Three pub. The One in three is still there although ironically it is now called the Three Crowns. It started as the Royal Horse Guards in 1823 changing to the Oddfellows Arms in 1832. It became the Three Crowns around 1847 and remained so until it closed in 1973 after being served a Compulsory Puchase Order (due to the Law Courts being built close by). The Three Crowns was demolished the following year.
