Albion Inn (Chadderton, OLDHAM)

The former Albion Inn in 2011.


The Albion Inn was situated at the end of Under Lane at the junction with Drury Lane. It was built in 1867 and was popular with mill workers from the nearby Albion Mill. When the mill was demolished in 1938 there was a drop in trade which worsened when housing in the area gave way to light industry. It closed in 2011 and JW Lees auctioned off the property. As of 2012 the property is still vacant and currently for sale with planning permission for change of use to offices.
