Bolton CAMRA – Stalybridge Social – Saturday 6th June 2026

It’s a long time since we had our last social to Stalybridge, so we are fitting a social in at the beginning of June.

There are plenty of trains to pick from and you can choose to get a train straight through from Bolton to Stalybridge. There are different ways of getting the best ticket. Here is one way I have chosen but it’s easy enough to select the train which is best for you.

Leaving Bolton at 10.25  will get us to Stalybridge by 11.04. I have chosen a ticket which leaves the return an open ticket so we can pick the time we want to come back.

This train is the Peak Day return and the cost if £8.82. If you have a senior rail card, the cost is £5.55 return.

I have looked at using our bus pass to Victoria, but it is not cheaper that using the Senior rail card. I suggest everyone looks at the ticket which is best for you.

We can meet at the Station Buffet Bar at Stalybridge Station where there are 9 changing beers so everyone should find something that they like. Lunchtime meals are also available.

Station Buffet Bar, Platform 4, Railway Station, SK15 1RF, 9 changing beers

Cracking Pint (Formerly The Crafty Pint), 41 Melbourne Street, SK15 WJJ, 3 changing beers

Bridge Beers, 55 Melbourne Street, SK15 2JJ, 4 changing beers

If you know any pubs with very good beer we can always include in the social
