Swan with Two Necks, Stockport

The Swan with two Necks is a smallish Robinsons tied house,i had a drink of Robinsons bitter which was very nice. Pub visited 18 march 1989. Photo taken 13 October 2007.

Small fronted Robinsons pub in a shopping street with a few tables outside. There’s a small front bar, a corridor drinking area and two rear rooms. An array of pumps clips but just Unicorn, Hatters and dark hatter on. Copies of local CAMRA newsletters were available.

Odd layout with a pleasant wood-panelled snug to the front left, the longer side of the central bar then serves something of a corridor, albeit with a couple of tables opposite. Further on to two unremarkable rear rooms, one of which has the feel of your gran's parlour. The gents loo is across the back yard, & this was the first time I noticed they have a few tables with seating outside. Surprisingly busy at 12:30 on my last visit; a sign declared that anyone seeming to have had too many would not be served further – maybe that’s why the locals start in here! Don't worry about the England flag decorating the pub in the first photo; it's not the sort of place to attract our finest hoolies.
