Exploring Pubs on Either Side of the River Irwell
Friday 23 January 2026

Not to be missed exploration of all the interesting and new pubs on either side of the River Irwell led by our champion ale trail curator, Craig Papworth.
Expect some or all of the following to be included:
, The New Oxford
, The Kings Arms
, The Gas Lamp
and a new pub on the site of the former Granada Studios' "Rovers Return"
, The Stables Tavern
Full details to follow but it is expected that we will catch the 11:26am train from Chester.
Make sure you've got this one in your diary as it's likely to be special.
