Around two miles from the centre of Blackburn towards Wilpshire and the Ribble Valley, this is a late Victorian end of terrace former Matthew Brown house. Friendly, comfortable and very popular with locals with dominoes and card games played. Small public bar and larger open plan lounge areas served from central bar. Very handy for both buses and trains from Blackburn,Whalley and Clitheroe.

Corner locals pubs last changed in the 1960s. A passage leads to the centre of the pub which was two rooms until the 1960s and has a counter from that date. On the left is a good early 20th century glazed brick, cast-iron and wood surround fireplace. Has post war seating in areas to left and right with two large arched shaped openings. On the corner is a crackin' snug with 'Bar Parlour' in the top of the door. The very small room has what looks like old wood backed fixed seating, a plain baffle, a Formica fronted bar counter, a bar back fittings that looks to be from 1960s and just two Formica top tables. There are a lovely set of 'Lion Ales' windows. A local says a car crashed into the corner of the pub and the corner door blocked up so possibly the bar fittings are from then? Not enough.
