A Community owned pub run by a group of enthusiastic local people who have worked hard to restore this cosy welcoming local pub to its former glory. Known as "The Thumb" by locals. Previously owned by Robinsons Brewery. After 11 months of closure it was re-opened as a Community pub on 16th December 2017. Two or three well-kept beers offer a varied range and often include a mild or a dark beer. There is also a thriving scene of local events and varied activities. Thursday is quiz night. Street food vendors are outside every Thurs evening and every second Friday each month. Bus stops in both directions just outside. A walking club, running club and cycling club use the premises weekly. There are also darts and dominos teams. Annually the pub organises an event to raise money for MIND. The pub takes part in the local CAMRA Mild Magic and Winter Warmer Wander trails every year. It is Greater Manchester CAMRA's Pub of the Year 2024.
