History
Previous names: The Didsbury Inn, The Church Inn
A former coaching house, built in 1793 on the site of a much older inn, the Ring o' Bells. Its front garden was once Didsbury's village green. It has also been known as the Church Inn and the Didsbury Inn.
Some versions of the Dozen start here, and it has brewed a beer named after the crawl.
