Nick quit the pub about 2 weeks back, but it is well worth a visit. The cheapest ale in the district, £2.30 all across the board for top quality REAL ale, not that rubbish that comes in a tanker, like petrol. There's Wainwrights bitter as the house ale,(reccomended) and always either Black Sheep, Bombadier, Silver Tally or many other top class ales, always at least three on sale.
If you make it to this real ale oasis after following the directions of both Rogues and the additional info from PK you can get a bus right outside, (every 15 minutes) and it'll drop you about 250 yards from the car.
It could be worth a visit as the patronage is about evenly split, Wigan and Saints supporters, a Wire supporter might just add a bit of objectivity to the usual banter.

| There's also the Colliers on 't other side ot hill, in Kings Moss.
Another cracking Real Ale pub, which is well worth a visit.
However, due to the location, it's much more biased towards the stains contingent  |

I've seen them bomb a quarter final, bottle a semi final, finish as league leaders, but I've still, never, seen the Wire win the league
