ONE of Manchester's oldest pubs has been saved after reaching a 'positive resolution' to a legal battle with brewing giant Heineken.
The landlord of Briton's Protection, one of three surviving city centre buildings near the site of the Peterloo Massacre, was due to appear in court earlier this year as part of a hearing to consider its application for a new tenancy.
It comes after Star Pubs - a subsidiary of Heineken - chose not to renew landlord Allan Hudd's lease in 2022, sparking fears over the future of the pub.
The pub has operated as a 'Market Rent Only' pub since 2018, meaning it isn't tied to Heineken products, but must buy a certain amount of keg beer from the brewing company.
