2439 - Sallying forth in Salford

Tonight straight after work and dinner, I
Went on a Salford historic pub tour
Beginning at the King's Arms, probably my
Local pub, and possibly even yours
From there we went to Trinity Church, where
Wesley was thrown out, on to the Eagle
Tucked away on a back street somewhere near
One barman, thirty customers, struggle
To get served, but managed a beer, then all
On to Greengate, car park, once cemetery
Then along the Irwell, ending up so near
My office, Manchester Martyrs, the wall
Where they hung is gone, then on to Bexley
Square, and the New Oxford pub. Bye, folks, bye!
