Lord Nelson Pub Manchester
"Kiss Me, Hardy"
The Northern Quarter has witnessed the death of The Lord Nelson after it was demolished earlier this month. The notoriously rough pub on the corner of Ancoats was once owned by ex-Quality Street gangster and boxing promoter Jimmy "The Weed" Donnelly, immortalised in the Thin Lizzy song 'Johnny The Fox meets Jimmy The Weed' and also famed for being the uncle of Gio-Goi founders Anthony and Christopher Donnelly. Talking of which, a biographical film about the brothers and their own naughty background is currently in production.

Pride Of Manchester had joined the successful campaign by local residents, including Jason Orange, Mike Harding and James Hickman, to force Peel to come up with more fitting designs for the urban heritage zone.
