Ainsworth Arms, Bolton


Directions

606 Halliwell Road, Bolton, BL1 8BY (View on Google Map)

A large landmark pub at the junction of Halliwell Road and just off the ring road. It is named after the Ainsworth family, who made their wealth from bleaching and were owners of the nearby historic Smithills Hall during the 1800's. Ownership of the pub transferred in 2014 to Welcome Taverns and in 2020 to Tonge Leisure and then to current owners Inglenook Inns. There was an extensive refurbishment to create a high quality finish with solid wood floors and leather seating. Thankfully the layout has been preserved. The main bar area has a split level and a small and cosy snug has been retained. There is a dart board and pub games are available. The pub is a popular and welcoming community venue.

Historic Interest

In 1982 this was a Tetley pub selling Tetley Mild and Walkers Bitter
