Pete Brown is a regular and explains why it won. E OLDE WOOLPACK on Brinksway, is a pub we almost lost. Closed for more than 12 months, its fate seemed uncertain Yuntil Mick Flynn and his family came to the rescue in November 2010. Situated on the banks of the River Mersey, close to the town centre and the M60 motorway (the Co-Op pyramid is about 100 yards away) it is ideally situated for passing trade and regulars alike. It is particularly popular in summer months with walkers and cyclists. As you enter you are greeted by a U-shaped bar, with an open seating area to your left, and two small rooms to the right. There is the odd hand pump on the bar, 15 to be precise, five dispensing an ever changing range of quality beers, and 10 (yes I did say 10) given over to some of his range of up to 16 ciders and perries.

    Springtime in Wharfe Woods, near Feizor Friends of A Dales High Way eNewsletter No 4 Spring 2017 Friends of A Dales High Way [email protected] Hello and welcome to the 2017 Spring edition of the Friends of A Dales High Way e-newsletter. Winter's passed relatively quietly and Spring is in the air! It's time to get out into the Yorkshire Dales and enjoy the freedom, the flowers and the beautiful landscape. The flooding of the previous winter had brought havoc to Cumbria, including the closure of the Settle-Carlisle railway line north of Appleby. Thankfully the line is now fully restored in time for the walking season. What better way to enjoy this than joining in this Spring's Ride2Stride Walking Festival - a week long festival of walks, talks and music along the fabulous Settle-Carlisle line. This year our very own Chris Grogan will be giving a light-hearted talk on how A Dales High Way was created. There's also a chance to join her walking one of the most iconic sections of the trail, around Ribblehead Viaduct. We hope you enjoy this newsletter. You'll find regular news updates on our newly revamped and now mobile-friendly website at daleshighway.org.uk Facebook and Twitter If you’re a fan of social media, especially if you are a business please do link up with us using Facebook or Twitter. Our Facebook page is at facebook.com/daleshighway and you can follow us on Twitter @highwaychris Spring time in Wharfe Woods If you are walking A Dales High Way in May allow a little extra time to enjoy the specialities of Feizor as you pass through.

    MAY 2007 NUMBER 273 COVERINGEnd THE CITIES OF MANCHESTER Of & SALFORD, STOCKPORT, An TAMESIDE, TRAFFORD, Era? N.E. CHESHIRE & MACCLESFIELD The Crescent in Salford has for long been one of the region’s leading free houses with an ever-changing range of guest beers and holding regular beer festivals. The quality and attention to detail are such that it has been a permanent fixture in CAMRA’s national Good Beer Guide. All that may be about to change. Hopefully, it will not. Long-standing tenants Idy and Sal are due to leave at the beginning of July, and there may be other management changes at the same time. The pub itself has been put up for sale by owner Andy Davies. The asking price is £690,000 and the pub is being marketed as a possible “development opportunity” attracting considerable interest in the local media. Idy and Sal’s final beer festival was due to take place just as this issue of Opening Times comes out, although we feel they will leave with a bang rather than a whimper. Everything is now in place for Stockport’s 21st Beer & Cider Festival, organised by the Stockport & South Manchester Branch of CAMRA, and once again Pub of the Month 2 Peak Practice 9 sponsored by the Stockport Express.
