The Ladysmith is a small bar with an L-shaped serving counter that serves seating up the left and across the rear. Standard keg was available and there was some background music playing. A very forgettable place that I don’t plan to revisit.

A fairly standard corner pub that was friendly enough on this afternoon visit. The bar area was pretty busy first thing in the afternoon. 2 handpumps on the bar serving Brains SA and Abbott.

This is now a keg only pub. Just one opened up room with a few tables and chairs. Most of the clientele seem to prefer vertical drinking. It's a totally nondescript place with no outstanding features and I can't think of anything to say about it really. Service was efficient and the punters loud and raucous in a friendly sort of way. I'll probably nexer call in again.

Called in here on the 20th of Feb i think its a bit of a gay bar nothing against that but with poppers on sale that gives it away the young lad was nice enough but it took him all the time to talk he was texting all the time must have upset someone half the windows bashed in

The Ladysmith is a pretty standard looking corner pub that is handy for the train and bus stations.
Once inside there was a single room that was fairly smart,it was carpeted and had comfy bench seating.
The pub was a Wilsons tied house when i went in it,there were two real ales on the bar,i had a drink of Wilsons bitter which was decent enough,the other beer was Theakstons bitter.
This was the last pub on this crawl of Ashton Under Lyne.
