The Houldsworth Arms in Reddish is a very large urban public house which was extensively remodelled between the wars. The facia is in cream terracotta with a semi-circular portico supported by (loosely) Doric columns.

Buddleia

tarboat has posted:

Terracotta on the Town Hall Hotel in Eccles which was opened in 1904 by Holt's Brewery. This was built on the site of the local cock-fighting pits. The buddleia is not a good thing and is no doubt causing serious damage to the structure. The pub is long closed and planning permission was granted for conversion into flats. I doesn't appear that this has actually happened and the building remains derelict.

Scarsdale Vaults

tarboat has posted:

I & F Dunnell owned the Scarsdale Brewery during the 1850s, and built this, at 40 St Mary's Gate, Chesterfield, as the Scarsdale Vaults in 1854. The stone pediment of the Vaults building is lettered with their name and 'WHOLESALE & RETAIL WINE & SPIRITS MERCHANTS'. The brewery head office was next door and the brewery at the rear survived until it was taken over by Whitbread in 1958 and closed in 1959.

DRINK MAP OF STOCKPORT. - The Gospel Temperance Union have published a "Drink map of Stockport", "giving a bird's eye view of the chief cause of the misery, poverty, and crime in the town." It is "dedicated to the thoughtful attention of all who wish the welfare of the borough, and especially of the licensing bench of magistrates." Each red spot on the map indicates a drink-shop, of which sort of plague-spot there are 302 specimens. Alliance News - Saturday 16 February 1884.
