he Bridge sits attractive ly on the built-up edge of Clitheroe, giving a
feel of the variety of the town - without being wholly swal lowed up by it. Food is served all day,
every day, from noon to 8 p.m. The bar times are 11- 30 a.m. to 11 p.m. each day (l 0-30 p.m. on Sundays). There is a family section inside and a pleasant out side area with tables. Your dog is welcome on a lead. Telephone: 01200 442961. How to get there: The pub
stands on the eastern side of Pendle Road approximately 100yds from its junction with the inner bypass, Queensway (A671). There is something to
interest everyone on this fascinating walk which combines the attractive townscape of the older part of Clitheroe, with its castle and museum, and the quite unique Salthill Geology Trail.
The Walk Leave the pub to the right and cross Taylor Street, then go in front of the tastefully integrated modern Shaw- bridge Court and turn right along the A671, here called Waterloo Road. The Tesco supermarket has replaced

the bus stops on the right and turn up the steps and cobbles just beyond to climb up beside the church halls (former schools) to Church Street; half-right is the parish church of St Mary Magdalene.

a little to the fork in the roads by the Town Hall and the library. Continue ahead up the main Castle Street. To the left is the imposing Swan and Royal Hotel of 1840. At the top of the street pass
•ahead on the track by - the limestone wall and pass the Army Cadet barn. Across the’ grassy area, next to the children's play area, a fine view across to Pendle Hill opens to your right. An information sign for the Salthill Trail has been erect ed here by the Lancashire Wildlife Trust. Return from this point if you do not wish to include the trail. Take the right-hand path
