Established in 1822, and once the brewery tap for the long defunct Wilkins Brewery, this pub has a prominent position on Liverpool Road at the junction with Marsh Lane. Located at the heart of the village, this dining pub prides itself on providing fresh local Lancashire produce, and you should find two cask ales available at any one time including the house beer, AU 1822 brewed exclusively for the pub by Laine brewery. It is ideally situated for walkers, and particularly dog friendly. It is close to the Ribble estuary and to the former Longton brickcroft with plenty of lovely walks on its doorstep.
