Visited mid December on a Friday around 1:30pm. Five hand pulls at the bar with four in use at the time of my visit - 3 by Wigan Brewhouse (California, Blue Sky Tea Pale Ale, Old Bosun) and Wainwright Gold.
This is a traditional looking pub with lots of dark wood, a cast iron radiator and elegant staircase (upstairs not investigated). Service was friendly. I believe the pub is due to close soon for a refurb so will be interesting to see what changes are made.

A very good pub. A 3 roomed pub and very close to the Wethers. This pub, however, has a much better selection of real ale. There are 7 handpumps on the bar with Allgates's Hic Bibi and Victoria, Rat Rat Mobile, Moorhouse Blond Witch, Bank Top Flat Cap, Burton Bridge Sovereign. The bar is to your right as you enter and to your left are 2 rooms. A good pub.
