Dave_Og Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 New play starring David Morrissey transfers to the West End - Hangman, presumably based on Albert Pierrepoint, set in a pub in Oldham, presumably the Help The Poor Struggler. I imagine the pub, which was in Hollinwood, is long gone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thetramfixer Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 It was on Manchester road either at the bottom of hollins road opposite the Roxy or further up where the motorway slip road is now. I looked this up myself a few weeks ago and iirc it said the pub was indeed knocked down to make room for the motorway junction and was I believe in the area where screwfix/autoparts is now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
