Large pub set beside an isolated part of the old River Irwell cut off when the Manchester Ship Canal was built. It has a conservatory and small patio area at the back overlooking the water, also there is a large beer garden to the side. The inside is split up with the Vault having a dart board and TV for showing sporting events. This is a community pub that sells food throughout the day but also caters for those who just want a relaxing pint. Pictures showing the history of the area, including the building of the canal adorn the walls.
Previously sold cask ale but it was reported in 2024 that handpulls had been removed a while ago.
