Large corner Robinsons pub located at a prominent crossroads. Built prior to the Great War it has unusually retained six separate drinking areas, three of which have real fires. On entering, the bar is to the left. The body of it runs into a large vault which features photographs of old-time Stockport, and brewing methods throughout. The Robinsons regular beer range is always available, complemented by a Robinsons seasonal offering, or an ale from their 'White Label' range. A good range of quality pub food is available, as well as sandwiches, baked potatoes, and other snacks. Darts and pool are played. Live music events twice a month. Two function rooms are available: one upstairs (80 people), and one downstairs (100 people). Dogs welcome when food not being served.

Historic Interest

Acquired by Frederic Robinson with the purchase of the Hempshaw Brook Brewery of Bell & Co, in June 1949.
