The OBL Griffin
The very architecturally grand "Griffin Hotel" of 1905 stands on the northern half of Standishgate in Wigan town centre.
It was built in 1905 by the Oldfield Brewery company (hence the gilded terracotta "OBL" above the central window in this photo) in an ornate "Edwardian Baroque" style
The building was in use as a pub until fairly recently but has been closed since sometime in 2018. It is an English Heritage Grade II listed building.
Will the Griffin arise again?
