Taken over by The Lancashire Hospitality Co-operation (who have a collection of award winning food & drink venues in the North West) in the Summer of 2023 from Robin & Ruth Tillbrook after 5 years at the helm.
Traditional free house formed from two cottages knocked together, now with an extension which houses R&R’s cafe bistro. Original stone walls, real fires and flagged or wooden floors have been retained in the old pub. In the West Pennine Moors, close to Darwen Tower and adjacent to Roddlesworth Visitors Centre, it looks over moors, woods and reservoirs. Friendly staff welcome walkers, cyclists, ramblers and dogs alike and offer a good menu.
