Mr Fastard makes the salient points below.
The only thing I'd emphasize is the lack of real ale. And without that there's little else to entice you in here.

Bucking Fastard left this review about Walmsley Arms Hotel

From the exterior a fine Victorian building on a prominent street corner plot.Through the front door there were raised sections to both left and right while the bar was to the back of the pub.However the only beer was keg Tetleys,no sign of Thwaites on the pub sign,while the slightly unusual keg Warsteiner 4.8% lager made our eyes water at £3.80 per pint and we were from the south.God knows the reaction from the locals to pricing like that.However the Kaltenberg Halle was priced cheaper at £2.40.
There was a table football machine,a pool and darts section,a large drop down screen unused on our visit,and some Blackburn Rovers ephemira dotted about.Pub grub classics were priced reasonably at £4.95 but the lack of real ale hastened our departure.As tourists to the area,there was not much to write home about in this pub.
