The Duke of Wellington, Heywood

THe bar is to the left as you enter with a small seating area to either side, both a bit nondescript. The jewel in this pubs crown is the room to the right. Lots of wood panelling and leaded windows, all very smart. There would appear to be a darts oche on the floor, but no dartboard. Maybe they just throw darts at the wall in here. There's one handpump on the bar and the advert for the pub claims that real ale is available at weekends. Well it wasn't on a Friday night, which would seem to be the weekend to me. I quite liked this pub and the smart room is very nice, but no real ale would put me off visiting regularly.

A 2 roomed traditional pub. 2 handpumps on the bar but sadly the clips were reversed on this visit. There is a small room to your right as you enter. The bar area is to your left with seating at each side of the bar. Basic but friendly enough.

a cracking pub in the heart of heywood town centre always a warm welcome and a nice pint to boot.
