🚊🚋 BANK HOLIDAY PUB CRAWL ANYONE? 🚋🚊

100 Years ago, we could have done the Brampton Mile by taking the tram but unfortunately, the only place you can ride these original trams now is at Crich Tramway Museum.

Watch Shaun riding the old tram in the video below. There's lots of history on our Brampton Mile Pub Crawl as well as lots of pubs.

We start at the Junction around 12 noon and spend 30 minutes at each pub. You'll hear all the history of each venue as well as local industries and colorful characters.

The finish line is at The Star around 8.00pm, but only if you make it that far. Many of our guests make it to the end, enjoying a great day of entertainment for just £8.

Book this final Brampton Mile Pub Crawl of the year, Sunday 24th August, by sending us a message or texting 07908 183 160.
