An English pub is probably a unique institution in the
world. It has survived for centuries providing succour
and comfort to millions of fellow citizens. It is an
essential and integral part of the English culture and
heritage. It is one place where religion, race or
social class holds no sway at all. Everyone is free to
go to a pub and enjoy drinking without being under any
obligation whatsoever how to conduct himself or
herself except being reasonable in his or her
behaviour.

A number of old pubs survive to this day which are not
only redolent of the past but which also possess
great charm, atmosphere and character. All the pubs
that are listed, on this site, are at least 100years
old. Some of these pubs are most unspoilt and are most
attractive, others are changed in varying degrees but
still retain a lot or little of the original
character.
This site lists some of these old pubs and at the
moment it is confined to Cheshire. However, it is
intended to cover other counties in the future.
It must be stressed that the list is purely subjective
and by no means an exhaustive one. It will be
periodically updated and, if necessary, to make
deletions or additions. While every attempt has been
made to give correct information, no responsibility is
accepted for any changes that might take place, as a
proprietorial and/or managerial decision, in the
running of these establishments.
