"A taste of Yorkshire in Lancashire"
Overview
The only Lancashire pub owned by Yorkshire brewery Timothy Taylor’s, the White Swan at Fence takes its real ales as seriously as its award-winning food. Expect perfectly kept pints of Landlord and Boltmaker served in the cosy bar, alongside a dozen wines offered by the glass. In the kitchen, chef Tom Parker keeps things concise on the good-value set menus and à la carte. Regional produce comes to the fore in dishes like stuffed jacket skin – Lancashire cheese, chives, pickles and herring roe, perhaps followed by Dexter beef fillet, celeriac, foraged mushrooms and red wine. Make sure you leave room for the garden apple crumble and vanilla custard.

About the area
Lancashire was at the centre of the British cotton industry in the 19th century, which lead to the urbanization of great tracts of the area. The cotton boom came and went, but the industrial profile remains.
