Small, traditional, two-roomed pub on the backstreets outside Longton, recently refurbished and converted to real ale. There is a dart board in the bar side, a pool table to the rear and bench seating for smokers to the front of the pub.
One star - A pub interior of special national historic interest
Listed status: Not listed
UPDATE 2020. A refurbishment has recently been carried out which requires a re-assessment. Please note - the photos are therefore out of date and the description is one written before the recent changes.
This traditional back-street local is well worth seeking out for the spectacular bar back in the public bar. It dates back probably to around 1870 and has four candy-twist columns and panels (formerly glass, now painted) advertising 'Fine Ales and Spirits'. The bar itself has much character, with its bare wood floor, Victorian bar counter with moulded top, some half-panelling and oldish (1960s?) fixed seating. It has been knocked through to the games room behind. Observe also the rare 'Parkers Bitter Beer' window screens. The lounge on the right is greatly altered.

Small traditional back-street pub. As you enter the pub there is a door in front of you that was the former off sales. On the left is the public bar with a bare wood floor and Victorian bar counter with moulded top. The spectacular bar back is one of the oldest in the area and may date back to the 1870s with four candy-twist columns and panels saying Fine Ales and Spirits (formerly glass, now painted). The fixed seating looks to date from at least 1960. Some half-panelling. It has been knocked through to the rear games room with bare wood floor. Note the excellent 'Parkers Bitter Beer' window screens - very rare. The lounge on the right was originally two small rooms and has a brick bar, modern fixed seating but has lost it fireplace.
