FROM articles we have run in the past we know how much Looking Back readers enjoy features on the old pubs of Bolton.

So we have gone back into the archives and unearthed some great and - in some cases - rare - photographs of pubs of the past.

Some of them are no longer standing but the memories linger on.

Perhaps you were a regular visitor to some of them or at least you recognise the buildings through growing up in the area.

We hope these photos bring back memories and if you have any pictures of old Bolton pubs email them to john.anson@nqnw.co.uk as we’d love to share them with readers
