This has been a long standing ,old school ale house which for years has featured in the GBG,it's still in the 2013 edition.The interior is now open plan and carpeted with the bar running down the left hand wall and two seatings areas,to the right a large banquette with a real fireplace,to the rear more bench seating and a dart board above another fireplace.To one side is a seperate room with a pool table.
The eight handpumps extend to the end of the bar besides the entrance lobby which can make seeing what's on a bit tricky.However there is normally a good range with quite a few Locales and not too many national brands.
The interior may be dated and a little worn but this gives it a warm cosy feel and it retains a boozer atmosphere unpolluted by food service,muzak and oppressive flat screens.Clearly The Tracle Tap and Wharf have upped the real ale competion in town and for a Friday evening the pub was quieter than I have known it,but it is well worth including on any ale tour of Macc.

The Waters Green tavern is a stand alone pub that is close to the train station.
This pub was a Tetley tied house when i went in it and the pub had a couple of rooms plus a pool room i went in the bar which was a decent room,there was only one real ale on here this was Tetley bitter and this was a decent drink.
