Asset of Community Value

Built 1913-14 as Ye Old Bowling Green Hotel and is is the most substantial and well-composed example of John Davies's Vernacular Revival public houses in Chester and built for Greenall Whitley and Co. Note the rare 'Wilderspool Ales' tiles on the exterior and on good etched windows. The interior retains much of its original plan and lots of fittings. There is much good screenwork and leaded glass. The main bar area retains an original brick and wood surround fireplace, an original Tudor arch shaped stone fireplace, dado panelling and fixed seating but the bar fittings are modern. The front right room has its original Tudor arch shaped stone fireplace and fixed seating. A large function room on the left has modern bar fittings. Open staircase leads to a large upstairs room with two snooker tables. It retains a bagatelle table and an active bowling green at the rear.
