The Brown Bull was situated at 187-189 Chapel Street. This pub was associated with the Quality Street Gang, a group of criminals operating in Manchester in the 1960s and 1970s, and Phil Lynott - the gold disc for the album Johny The Fox was reputedly hung on the wall. It lost its license in the 1990s and is now used as a guest house.
