Northern, Cheshire Area

Our May meeting (May 2nd) will start at the Cock and Pleasant, around 8:30.

We normally meet at the Cock and Pheasant in Bollington on the first Thursday of the month. I aim to be there around 8:30 (runs out excepted, see below), but one or two folk often arrive earlier.

Meetings are mostly informal and the pub usually has 2 real ales on handpumps. It's been the same beer choice for a while. It's recently (interpretation of 'recently' may be needed) changed hands and been 'refurbished' and is a restaurant but still seems to sell beer and have tables inside.

The regulars can provide a great deal of technical knowledge (and in some cases have a large cast iron collection, in the process of shrinking), mostly about the small chassis cars.

We have 'runs out' in June, July and August, usually starting a little earlier at the C&P, and travelling via all sorts of roads to another establishment. Check the Courier (or this web site) for details of the runs out.

Most people will approach from the A523 (the 'Silk Road') which means you don't get the nice view of the pub (above) you would get if you came from Bollington village. If you come along Bollington Road from the A523, you'll get the view in the first photo in the gallery below. If you come along Flash Lane (very narrow), it's difficult to spot the car park entrance on your right, but just turn right at the junction a few yards later and then right again into the car park.

The events list is a 'work in progress'. The 2024 list issue 5 is now available below.
