140 The Peels Arms - Halliwell Road ( Bolton )


First  visited  : 1  June  2017

This  one's  a  bit  further  down  Halliwell  Road  and  was  once , I'm  reliably  informed, Bolton's  gay  pub.  I'd  only  just  have  known  what  that  meant  ( c/o  Tom  Robinson ) back  in  1978.

There's  little  sign  of  that  history  now  in   the  re-christened  pub. It's  now  a  Wanderers  supporters  pub , designed  for  Sky-watching  with  a  screen  in  every  corner. It's  open, charmless  and  unfriendly  and  I  won't  be  re-visiting.
