Smart multi-room pub with a pleasant conservatory and a modest garden to the rear. Its style and decoration has a modern accent. The interior is deeper than you might first expect. There is a small room to the right for sports, the main room has the bar along the left wall, and there are fixed seating areas to the front and rear. In between those is mostly stand up drinking territory. A friendly, family atmosphere, often bustling when live TV sport is shown. A small area outside the front has picnic tables for those sunny days.
Historic Interest
This was the birthplace of the local branch (then called South Manchester branch) of CAMRA on 15/1/1974; a blue plaque commemorating that event was affixed to the outside wall of the building on 29/9/2021. Acquired by Frederic Robinson with the purchase of the Hempshaw Brook Brewery of Bell & Co, in June 1949.
