Sharman Arms pub @ Bolton

[sherlock1207]

I would like to see a photograph of the Sharman Arms public house at 218 Halliwell Road, Halliwell, Bolton and a close-up of the pub's sign. If anyone who reads this could oblige and send it to me at  *, I would be most grateful.

Thank you.
Robin Sharman,

Hi Robin, have you tried the Bolton Evening News web site??  They have a fantastic 'Looking Back' section of old photos.  You can also e-mail them with a request for a photo.  There's also the museum which have a brilliant collection of old photos.   Also, try thisisbolton.com  they will do searches for you for old photos


Good luck

Hi Migky

I googled Sharman Arms and it came up with a guide to pubs and Sharman Arms was one of them.  It appeared to be a popular place.

Are you from Bolton??   I'm an ex Boltonian  from way back

Thanks for this folks. The Sharman Arms must be a homage to the defunct brewery. I'd still like to see photos of the pub and its sign if anyone with a digital camera happens to be in the area.

Dear Robin

I'll head over to Halliwell Rd (hopefully this weekend) and take a picture for you.

Best wishes

Dear Robin

Have sent the photos to your email address. Can you let me know if you got them okay?

Best wishes

Thank you so much for the photos. I'm really grateful. I had hoped that the sign would be a coat of arms, but never mind, eh? If ever I get up that way, I'll go to see it for myself.
