Peveril Of The Peak, Planned Demolition

Pevril of the peak planned for demolition because of planning changes to the road layout but was saved by its local community as a central part of the district and a hub entertainment, the pub still stands today and is commended for is cultural and dated aesthetic assets, and is regarded as a popular venue and location in Manchester.

Other than the temporary halt to expansion due to the declaration of war in 1930, the Bus station continued successfully through the 40s and 50s, however the widespread car ownership that came with the 1960s forced the bus station out of favour. [Station in 1967 shown above]. The formation of the National Bus Company in 1968 was the final nail in the coffin for the Lower Mosley Street Bus Station due to their severe cuts in services. The fate of the station was sealed and on 13th May 1973 it closed, being demolished later that year.

Following this Tommy Ducks was demolished the cultural hub and icon of Manchester was no longer. Following the demolition, Greenalls were fined £150,000 for the destruction of the public house. The Tommy Ducks site is now occupied by a premier inn hotel that is evident of the shift in attitudes to move towards commercial and economic development for the area and city of Manchester.
