The name of the pub reflects the fact that from Victorian times until fairly recently it would have attracted its clientele from the nearby terraced houses and industries. All of these are now gone and replaced by new developments. Many of the new residents in the area are young, and probably prefer to take the tram to the hotspots of nearby Manchester city centre, than drink in the surviving Victorian pubs in Salford. Image
