Some history & interesting info about the Railway Inn:
- The Railway Inn has it's own county standard bowling green with nine Railway Inn Bowling Teams – Gents, Ladies, Mixed & Veteran.
- The Railway Inn was formerly a mill house and the building was converted into a pub around 1860 when the Manchester to Chester railway line was built.
- The Railway is a good base for walkers as there are lots of public footpaths nearby. Customers can leave their cars and order their lunch in advance so it's ready for when they return from a walk in the lovely countryside.
- The Railway Inn has been run by Tony and Lynda for over 35 years. It has been in the family since 1937 when Tony's great aunt was the licensee until 1972. In 1988 Tony and Lynda moved into the pub with their children Laura and Matthew, who now help to run the pub - keeping it a family business.
- The Railway Inn is very close to the second runway at Manchester Airport so the large garden is a plane spotters paradise!
