| The former Plough Inn in 2006. |
The Plough Inn was situated at 334 Manchester Street and dates back to 1784. It started life as the Cheshire Cheese and didn't become the Plough until 1828. Whitbread rebuilt the plough in 1968 although the name "New Plough" seems to have come about when the pub was modernised around 1995. The Plough closed in 2006 and in 2007 became an indian restaurant.
the plough was a successful pub that the local rockers/bikers frequented till the new landlords decided our custom wasn't good enough and decided they wanted a different clientel.... the pub closed not long after the rockers left.
ReplyDeleteWhen I was landlady of the pub we tried to bring the rockers back.. Too little too late. Turning the plough into a restaurant was the death of the boozer.
