The Turf Tavern - Location: Rochdale
« on: Mar 7 - 2008 »

Name: The Turf Tavern - Location: Rochdale

Address: 564 Edenfield Road, Rochdale, Lancashire, OL12 7QJ [01706 631775]
Always in support of the Samuel Smiths Brewery - although very concerned about the current company strategy towards its staff and customers, as exercised by the Directors. We believe in promoting common sense, decency, compassion, fairness and compliance with company, employment and English law.

As this is between the Star and the White Lion shouldn't it be Nordon not Rochdale?

It is actually Norden not Nordon and the Turf Tavern is definitely in Norden whereas the star Inn is about 100 yards outside. However, Norden is a district of Rochdale so splitting hairs is not really worthwhile.

It does appear that members are splitting hairs over a rather trivial matter. We don't want to lose member for that reason and it is the season to be kind to all folk.

Makes no difference to me where in Lancashire it is - if it's south of the Tyne or north of the Tweed it's foreign turf anyway!!  ;D

Thanks for the replies, I agree that the Star looks a tidier pub,seems to have had a refurb. However consistency counts, if two are Norden shouldn't all three. Again not vitally important but keep updates coming.

I have visited them to say i've been, but would not go out of my way to go again. The Star is the better of the pubs in that area.
