The Mawson, Manchester

Substantial corner pub, which somehow seems rather left behind after much of the area around it has been redeveloped over the years. It has a fine unaltered layout with a lounge, drinking lobby and a back room clustered around the central bar area. A couple of other doors presumably lead to rooms no longer in regular use. The walls are mostly half-panelled in wood, with some unornate but interesting tiling and other decorative features in each area. No real ale unfortunately, so had to resort to the Tetleys Extra Cold at £2.50. On looking the place up afterwards, I wasn't at all surprised to see that it is listed in CAMRA's inventory of historic pub interiors and well worth seeking out to have a look around (if not for the beer).
