The Stockport & South Manchester Pub of the Month Scheme started in March 1980. Initially it was run in conjunction with Trafford & Hulme Branch. The arrangement was for Trafford & Hulme Branch to select four pubs each year, and Stockport & South Manchester eight. Trafford and Hulme selections are indicated with Trafford & Hulme in blue text. In January 1985 Trafford & Hulme made no selection and the joint scheme was then ended
From 1983 onwards it was decided to select a Pub of the Year from the pubs of the month, with the winners shown with the pub name in red.
In 2000, because we select our Pub Of The Year in January from a Pub Of The Month in the previous year, it was decided to re-align the printed year with the presentation year. We could have renamed it Pub Of The Previous Year, but that was vetoed! Thus, the Nursery was awarded the Pub of the Year 2001 having attained the Pub Of The Month in April 2000. This also means there is actually no plaque saying "Pub Of The Year 2000".
On 15 March 2016 a new City Centre Manchester branch was formed, resulting in a number of Stockport & South Manchester pubs in the city centre being transferred . These are indicated in orange text. The boundary for the division was everything located north of the Mancunian Way.
Any pub whose name is picked out in red went on to be the branch Pub Of The Year. Some then progressed further at regional and national levels.
