There's a pub in Bolton called "The House without a Name", other wise known as the no name pub. My ex's dad lived near it. Was established around 1820 I think.
Best one in Bolton though is: The Man and Scythe. 1st built 12th Century, rebuilt again in 17th Century and again in the Victorian era. Bits of it are I believe from the original construction. The 7th Earl of Derby was held there and taken out for execution frm there in 1651. There's a skull behind the bar which is traditionally assumed to be Derby's.....But the pub is known to Boltoners usually as "T' Cider 'Ouse".
