Westwood Inn (Westwood, OLDHAM)

The Westwood Inn c.2005.

The Westwood Inn was located at the corner of Middleton Road and Featherstall Road South (its address was 175 Featherstall Road South). It opened around 1807 and became the Westwood Inn around 1816. The pub was extensively altered in 1981 when the Westwood lost the top storey of the building and had an extension built. It closed in 2004 and in 2008 became Britain's first muslim "pub". This wasn't successful and closed in less than a year. As of 2012 the former Westwood Inn is mixed use being a takeaway/offices.
