Converted to real ale in 2012. The pub was opened out many years ago and in doing so, may have lost much of its character, but the pictures of old Stockport and of course Stockport County FC around the walls give some warmth and character to the place. With the bar at the back, there is plenty of room at the front. For some time this was under the same licensee holding as the nearby "Bobby Peel" (Sir Robert Peel).
