Named after a sailing ship this large corner pub is adjacent to what were Higsons 1962 Brewery offices so they swapped another pub with Walkers to own it. A tastefully decorated and comfortable pub, appealing to both business and leisure clientele. Three sided bar in main room, with attractive area at rear. Local football shown on three screens, live music Saturday night.
