The Crown Tavern

The Crown Tavern, also known as The Crown or Crown Hotel, was a public house located on Blackfriars Street in Salford, Greater Manchester, England. The building dates from the early 19th century and served as a pub for much of its history. A late 19th-century refurbishment added a distinctive tiled street frontage, with the name "Crown Hotel" spelled out in the tilework. The pub closed in 1970, and the building was later adapted for commercial use, becoming a nail bar and beauty salon in 2012. On 18 January 1980, it was designated a Grade II listed building, recognising its architectural and historical significance. The building is finished in painted brick with a Welsh slate roof, rising to three storeys with three windows across the front. The ground floor retains a later 19th-century pub frontage, including a central arched entrance with double doors, flanked by arched windows and a smaller doorway to the left. The name "Crown Hotel" appears in tiled lettering below the windows, with decorative tiles outlining the door and window arches and a moulded band running across the width of the façade. The upper floors have traditional sash windows, with larger panes on the first floor and smaller ones at attic level, each set beneath simple flat heads. Chimney stacks stand at each end of the roof. Although the pub is no longer in operation, the building remains a notable example of a historic Salford pub and is included in the list of listed buildings in Salford and listed pubs in Greater Manchester.
