The pub's distinctive stone slate roofs and dressed stone and quoins on the exterior blend in perfectly with the surrounding area, which is rich in history and beautiful architecture.The Grade II listed Holy Trinity Church, built by renowned religious architect Francis Octavius Bedford and consecrated in 1831, is less than a 15-minute walk away.Horwich Parish Hall, another impressive Grade II structure, was built in 1793 and had such close ties to the church that its staff was paid from the Sunday service collection. Smithills Hall, one of the many historic Grade I listed stately homes in this region, is also nearby, as is Chorley's Astley Hall.The Blundell Arms is ideally located for exploring the region's most important sights, with central Manchester and Liverpool both less than an hour away by car and Arnside and Silverdale an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) less than an hour away.
