Draped in Manchester City colours, yet they feel the need to have a sign outside saying "Home Fans Only".....

The Eastlands Bar (formerly the Queen Vic), 80 Grey Mare Lane
Queen Victoria would not have been amused at a pub being called the Queen Vic, so probably out of respect to her memory it's a good thing the name was recently changed, after a refit to the pub. This is another pub much frequented by Manchester City football fans, and its new name reflects the local name for the City's ground.

The Eastlands Bar pub sign, 80 Grey Mare Lane
The name is the local name for Manchester City Football Club's nearby ground. The crest is that of the football club. The Latin words mean "Pride in Battle". United fans should stay well away from here.

The East Manchester Academy, Grey Mare Lane
The East Manchester Academy, on the corner of Grey Mare Lane and Albert Street, is due to open in September 2010. It is substantially but not totally completed.
Sponsored by Bovis Lend Lease and Laing O’Rourke, with co-sponsors Manchester City Council and The Manchester College, the Academy will provide 900 places for 11 to 16 year olds as well as post 16 provision. It will also provide a new District Library for people living in the wider east Manchester area.
Academy schools have proved quite controversial, because of the input of commercial or religious organisations, with varying success. It will be interesting to see if the new Government will permit more, or possibly this could be one of the last of its type?

St. Brigid's Catholic Church, Grey Mare Lane, Bradford, Manchester
This modern church replaced a large Victorian church of the same name in Mill Street. This area of Manchester is sometimes called Bradford - not to be confused with the large City of the same name in West Yorkshire.
