First built in 1691 and re-built in 1926 this is an impressive Edwardian stone built free house, situated in the Town Hall Square, with many original architectural features remaining. Twelve cask ales are usually available on hand pump. The use of the word 'traditional' under the heading 'Cask Ciders' on the 'Untappd' display board behind the bar may be confusing. Live sporting events are shown on TV and live music plays Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays. The hotel features log fires and provides accommodation. The menu features meat from the local butcher and pies made on the premises. A function room is available for hire and there is a heated smokers' area outside. Ben, Sarah and Lucy and their friendly staff wait to give you a warm welcome. Greater Manchester Pub Of The Year in 2018 & 2019..

Please check the 'Untappd' display board behind the bar for fuller information. Be aware that some of the 'Untappd' descriptions using the words 'traditional cider' under 'Cask Cider' can be confusing as some may not be considered real ciders by CAMRA.
