This Pub is Permanently Closed

Served by regular bus services, the White Horse stands back from the busy A646 Burnley Road at Friendly. The small seating area to the front is an ideal spot to enjoy the impressive floral window boxes that are a feature each summer and have earned prizes for the pub. The cosy and compact two-roomed interior has a semi-divided lounge bar and an adjacent taproom that are listed in CAMRA's Yorkshire's Real Heritage Pubs guide. The pub is also noted for its fundraising efforts for the local hospice.

One star - A pub interior of special national historic interest

Listed status: Not listed

An intact refurbishment of 1962 which is an example of good late work by the Halifax brewers Ramsden’s. Designed by their managing director, T Hardy, a qualified architect, the scheme re-fashioned the older premises here into a practical two-room interior, unfussy but with quality features. The servery has the clean lines redolent of its time, with fine wood finishes, recessed lighting and mirror-backed shelving. Both rooms have fitted seating and the neat tap room is served by hatch. The lounge-bar's plasterwork has pyramid motifs.
