Finding a Bar Billiards table at The Railway pub in Stockport.
We're big fans of the old pub game of Bar Billiards so were very pleased to find a table at The Railway pub in Stockport on Saturday!
Unfortunately we didn't get a chance to play it as the pub had problems with its water supply and had to close while the emergency works were completed.

We're looking forward to returning for a game or two in the future.

In 2017 we played the Bar Billiards table at The Blossoms pub on the A6. Like The Blossoms, the table at The Railway uses the four peg arrangement.

| The table looks to be popular! |
Coming from down south we're more used to seeing three pegs. We haven't seen too many four-peg tables on our Barmy Bar Billiards Trail. The ones at The Cheshire Cheese pub in London and The Chequers Inn at Knebworth spring to mind.
