Margaret Street
The Ring o Bells Image on the corner of Moss Street and Margaret Street. Once surrounded by terraced house, by the 1980s it was surrounded by light industry. Now Margaret Street is part of the one-way system at the West End of Ashton between Katherine Street and Chester Square. The now somewhat isolated pub was originally a beerhouse owned by James Wood from 1863 to 1882. It became a Bents and Gartside's pub in 1939 and granted a full licence in 1953. It became a Bass pub in 1967 but is now a free house.
