Terrible name though , the new pub should be called " The Leyther " .

What has whistling wrens got to do with Leigh RLFC ???

I would imagine it's more based around Penny Flash than owt to do with rugby. Especially as the red, red robins haven't visited the LSV yet.

The grounds not big enough for their away support.

Could it be related to Spinning Jenny as in Jenny Wren?

How are those two connected?

Plenty of great ales from the Marstons group: Wychwood, Brakspear, Marstons and of course the excellent range from Ringwood (I've not found a bad pint yet of any of those, although I found Huffkin a bit of an aquired taste.)
We'll probably get Banks and Mansfield though, the worst they make.
Jennings isn't the brewery it was either, but still better than Banks'


I'll be in there anyway!

Mmmmmm Brakespear.

well i think its great, it breaks my heart to see pubs close all over the place, especially the better ones, will certainly give it a try, obviously the beer has to be of good quality or i wont be in again, likes been said any new investment into the area should be welcomed.

Correct me if im wrong , but isnt there a Wren on the Leigh coat of Arms ?

It's a sparrowhawk on the coat of arms, isn't it?

It`ll be a spuggie?
