    As a spaniard, I really love how intricate the interior layout of some of those pubs can be. Sometimes you have like two or three cozy rooms with their own style. Its really amazing. I believe thats something very difficult (if not impossible) to find inside spanish pubs/bars. I absolutely enjoy your videos showing us your amazing british pub culture!

      I live here and it definitely isnt immaculate! Better than some places, sure. But there's plenty of scruffy areas in and around the centre. Fly tipping, graffiti, litter, asbo chavs, homeless people shitting on the street. Same sort of issues as any decent sized town in the UK, sadly.
      The Edgy Arms might be one of the roughest pubs I've been in tbh 😂. Some 'characters' in there in the evening. Looks better in the day than the night though!

    The Armoury is the best Robinson's pub in town, in my opinion. Heaton Hops is the best location for beer in the area.

    much rather be in stockport than somewhere like Huddersfield
    it's impressive how much money is being poured into stockports new apartments, leisure and retail spaces
    but the influx of new people is going to put huge pressure on hospitals, schools, doctors etc.

    Hi mate! Just discovered your channel today, awesome! I'm from Stockport and used to go in lots of boozers around the town, some of which are no longer there sadly. Congratulations on finding the Swan with Two necks! That is probably one of the only pubs that has been left in it's original state in the middle of the main shopping streets. It's always been a great meeting point when my step dad or boyfriend was able to enjoy a nice pint or two whilst us girlies did some retail. Two other places you missed was the Robinsons 'Bakers Vaults' on the corner of the market place opposite the indoor Victorian market, which used to be awesome back in the day with a chilled out jazz night on a Wednesday. The for a really dingy pub there is the Nelson Tavern, opposite the college, but probably rough as f*ck these days no doubt! Loving your channel, have you done Northampton yet? We have load of quality boozers round where I live now in New Mills, Whaley Bridge, Buxworth, Capel-en-le-Frith and Whitehough if your into real ales.

    The “two necks” thing, should be Two Nicks - a sign the swan was owned by non royalty. As with this one, one in Leeds changed to necks. I assume they all have, though two necks sounds juat as wierd. .
