NB.  This second article suggests that the beerhouse was in High Street, BUT in the first article it mentions the corner of Appleby Street, which suggests that it's synonymous with THE SPINNERS ARMS.

In 1838 there was a Joseph Barton at the "Hen and Chickens" in

Fox Street.  There was also a "Hen and Chickens" in Bridge Street.

My records for those premises run from 1838, but it is possible (in 

fact I think probable) that this is the same man who repeated the name

of his beer-house.

I suspect that 'Green Street Tavern' had been formerly known as 'Gas Works Tavern'. I think, also that it may have enjoyed a period when it was known as the 'Crooked Billet'!!

 Patten Street, Preston, and many other streets within a radius of 1/3 of a mile from it, were heavily populated with immigrant Irish folk. Perhaps the name of this inn is unsurprising:-

John MacMahon, an Irish doctor born in Limerick, was naturalised in France in 1749 and married Charlotte Le Belin, Dame d'Eguilly, on 13 April 1750. The same year he was created Marquis d'Eguilly by King Louis XV. His son, the second Marquis, served in the American War of Independence and was a founding member of the Society of the Cincinnati. A grandson of the first Marquis, Patrice de MacMahon, served with distinction as a general in the Crimean War and later in the Austro-Sardinian War, winning the Battle of Magenta on 4 June 1859. The following day he was created Duc de Magenta by the Emperor Napoleon III. The marquesal title held by the senior line of the family was inherited by the younger, ducal line in 1894 and both titles still remain extant.
