See more about this pub on WhatPub, CAMRA's national pub guide.

This pub opened as The Dingman in 1985,. This is thought to refer to a tinsmith, one of the old trades employed at the Leyland Motors factories. Later it became the Hogs Head and then The Cherry Tree before finally becoming The Old Leyland Gates. This is probably another Leyland Motors reference since the gates to the old Farington factory were directly opposite the pub (now the access road to the Morrisons shopping complex). The layout is open plan, but with distinct areas. Food is focused on 'flaming grills' along with a range of traditional pub classics. Abbot Ale and Greene King IPA are the two regular real ales. A guest ale features occasionally usually associated with a specific event or occasion.
