An unusual small mock-Tudor roadside pub, now converted for residential use. It takes its name from a long-closed branch of the Great Northern Railway running through the southern fringes of the town.
The Farmers Arms
A large Edwardian pub situated a couple of miles west of Stockport town centre in the angle of two main roads. It was put up for sale by owners Greene King in late 2019 and never reopened after the first lockdown. The large car park makes it a prime redevelopment opportunity. Surrounded by extensive areas of housing, it was the only pub for half a mile or more in any direction. (Photo courtesy of John Clarke)
The Bridge Inn
A large inter-wars pub in the Belle Vale area on the eastern side of the city, which appears to predate the surrounding housing.
The Barge
A large white-painted pub in the fork of two roads on the southern side of the town close to the Thames estuary, hence the name. There are currently proposals to convert it into a mosque and community centre.
The Royal Oak
An imposing Georgian-style pub on the bend of a road in this large village to the east of Leeds.
