The Mitre Inn

Photograph at the The Mitre Inn blue plaque

The Mitre Inn The building stands on the site of Dobson's Row which dates from the late 18th Century. The earliest deeds of the premises date from 1863 when they were used by John Crabtree as a grocers and confectioners. Many changes of ownership have taken place over the ensuing years. It became fully licensed premises in July 1898 and for a time rejoiced under the name of 'Ye Old Glue Pot'! It became known as the Mitre Inn in June 1902. Today it holds the distinction of being the smallest public house in Blackpool. Kindly donated by Philip and Sue Johnson
