The building that is now The Old Wellington Inn was built in 1552 next to Manchester's market square. In 1554 it was purchased by the Byrom family and became part residence and part drapers shop. The writer John Byrom was born there in 1692. The premises were licensed in 1862 and became the Vintners Arms, then the Kenyon Vaults and later The Old Wellington Inn. The building was extended in the 18th century to house John Shaw's Punch House which, as the name suggests, was licensed for the sale of strong alcoholic punch (drink) and became a meeting place for High Tories and possibly Jacobites. After John Shaw’s death in 1796 it became Sinclair's, until oysters were introduced to the menu in 1845 and it became known as Sinclair's Oyster Bar
Many of the buildings in the market place were demolished in the Victorian era to make way for road improvements. During the Manchester Blitz in 1940 the rest of the buildings were destroyed leaving The Shambles as one of the few pre-19th century buildings, and The Wellington Inn as the only surviving Tudor building in Manchester City Centre. The buildings were both designated as Grade II listed builings in 1952
In 1974 most of the old property between Shudehill and Market Street was demolished to accommodate the new Arndale Shopping Centre. The Shambles was underpinned with a concrete raft and, according to the Greater Manchester County Records Office, jacked-up 4 feet 9 inches to fit in with this development in the newly created Shambles Square. In 1996 an IRA terrorist bomb was exploded in nearby Corporation Street. Many of the surrounding buildings were badly damaged but The Shambles was protected by the concrete buildings around it and suffered only minimal damage. In 1998, £12M funding was provided by the government-sponsored Redevelopment Agency English Partnerships, private companies, the European Community and Manchester City Council to redevelop Shambles Square.] The buildings were subsequently dismantled and moved 300 metres northwards to their present location, close to Manchester Cathedral in 1999. The Old Wellington Inn and Sinclair's were rebuilt at 90 degrees to each other and joined together by a stone extension to form two sides of the new Shambles Square. The third side of the square is fronted by The Mitre Hotel which was built as The Old Church Tavern in 1815. Prince Charles Edward Stuart is said to have reviewed his troops by the tavern in 1745. It was renamed as The Mitre Hotel around 1835.

A recently acquired Byron Harmon postcard with an early view of Sinclair Canyon in Radium, BC... Today this is a very busy stretch of road that pretty much looks the same, but the road is now paved (for many years now) and is much busier with traffic, as a popular tourist attraction in the Canadian Rockies...
Skylar Gudasz came through town in support of Teenage Fanclub for a show at the The Sinclair. For photos of Boston area bands doing their thing, visit Daykamp Music at:

Flickr has become all most a full time job and that’s not why I’m here. I’m tired of giving comments and getting nothing in return. I have some very good friends & contacts that leave comments on a regular basis. And then we have the ones that look at my images and say nothing. If you stop by my photo stream Please say something, positive or negative. If you choose to say something negative please explain why. I’m on a learning curve and all the help is appreciated. I have some contacts that would give comments all the time now they have gone by the way side. So from now on I will only comment on the ones that comment back on my photos….
Now let’s have a great time on Flickr….
I'm told the MS was requested for 7 days - presumably to cover the period the Canna was expected to be out of service - but was only available for 3.

Sinclair Cambridge Programmable Calculator. About 1973. They were available in black or white. They were popular and affordable. Some came with glitches however. Models in the Cambridge series were notorious for being impossible to switch off. Not sure of the transport connection other than the C5.
