Resisting the obvious temptation to say " My sexual proclivities are nothing to do with you" oops There I've gone and said it !!!
No Margaret as Mr C rightly says I am an interloper. I moved to Clayton Top End Thirty-plenty years ago. Gravity dictates that I meander down the hill to the bottom end for the best real ale and pub in CLM, well gravity yes that and the fact I am barred from the Greyhound this 7 long years thank my lucky stars.
The Old England Forever makes a nice half way staging post too although John's aging labrador needs a bit of lead in it's ear.
Quiz on Wednesdays there.

Re: Pub Quiz
Sorry, Flashy is right - the Forts is at the bottom of Barnes Street but at the top of Lower Barnes Street (although you could at a stretch also say it's at the bottom of Rishton Road)

Re: Pub Quiz
The Whittakers Arms on Burnley R'd do a quiz on Thurs nights, starts at 9pm I think. Also the Griffins Head at Huncoat have a quiz on Wed nights but be aware , the quiz master is very , very sarcastic .
