This pub attracts the older crowd during the day. Judging from the two guys fixing up an expensive lighting rig on the ceiling in the main lounge and the dance music from the jukebox, there is more likely a younger crowd of an evening.
One handpump serving Bass, the landlord was a character, up for a bit of a laugh.

After a seemingly short closure the Duke of Bridgewater has reopened with a new tenant, who was very welcoming when I popped in on Saturday afternoon. A couple of locals sat at the bar were friendly enough, as was the handyman who was doing a few odd jobs. Facing the entrance, the bar supports a standard keg range alongside Madri Excepcional. Is Madri a premium beer, I’ve no idea? There are also four handpumps, three of which were unused which left Sharps Doom Bar as the uninspiring cask ale option. I didn’t see any food advertised.
Seating is found around the exterior walls in the bar area and to the right are a pool table and dartboard. A jukebox was playing some background music that was also being piped into the back garden. The sloped back garden has a mix of lawn, paving and woodchip that supports some picnic tables, some of which area covered. This pub has the feel of just being taken over and although I wouldn’t go out of my way to revisit I would pop back in if passing to see what the new governor makes of the place.

Pretty decent corner boozer. Open plan and a good start for the long walk to the station.

Almost town center pub, on the corner of Eddleston road and Wistaston road, near the Bowling hall and Cinema. Great pub, good quality beers from Marstons, including Jennings. Good size, comfortable. Traditional games, pool table and sports on several TV's.

Now run by a nice Polish couple very friendly and both english speakers, I have only been in there in afternoons, but I have heard at night that the local Poles see this as their territory, there are now ten thousand Poles living in the area.
UPDATE!!!
The pub has now reopened as British pub with British owners again on september 9 2008

This is now a Polish pub, it has been known for local people to be physically abused and threatened if they enter this pub.
