From the state of many Salford fans last Good Friday, it was equally enjoyed.

I have been planning a similar trip from Salford Central to Clitheroe (the train goes via Bolton) and it seems quite viable with a decision yet to be made for Blackburn.

We play at Wakefield on Sunday and so there's the visit to that gem: the King's Arms at Heath: walking distance to and from the ground.

You are correct, it is an absolute gem.
It hasn't changed materially in all my adult life ... and that's a considerable period of time.
