Wetherspoon pub in a former department store.

One of my favourite views in Manchester – The Mark Addy.
The roof of the building looked a bit like a mix between a bus shelter and a strange conservatory.
– Remembering Manchester and Salford’s original riverside pub that sank
It appeals to me on both counts, the curved glass is great and has a real nostalgic-futuristic feel about it.

There’s something very funny about Wetherspoons having an article on their website about the pub and Oswestry at large, in quite a lot of detail, full of photographs of photos seemingly taken at what must be the local museum? Sure, why not! It also includes a picture of this pub which manages to make it look even more bleak, against all odds.
