http://www.pubsindex.freeserve.co.uk/ The guys who run this website may be able to help confirm the name of the pub. They are putting together a database of all pubs in England pre 1900 i think. The database is not online, but there is a request form that you can fill out for information. Bethan |

Thankyou William. According to the 1881 census my great grandfather kept the pub at 36 lime street but does not give the name of the pub. His name was James Alexander Thomas |

The Legs Of Man pub was way up the other end of Lime St and on the opposite side number 36 would have been on the corner as you turn into Elliot St leading to Clayton Square. As we know the area today the old St Georges Hotel and the old night club Studio 54 on top of the ugly St Johns market fill the spot today. Colette xxxx |
