For over a week now Greater Manchester and many parts of the UK have basked in glorious spring weather. The sun hasn\u2019t stopped shining, there\u2019s hardly been a cloud in the sky and it\u2019s even been hotter than Spain<\/a>.<\/p>\n Although this weekend it looks like that could all change as the weather takes a turn, with temperatures returning to average for this time of year.<\/p>\n It\u2019s likely the sun will disappear behind the clouds once more with forecasters even predicting showers for next week.<\/p>\n But there\u2019s still a time to make the most of the beautiful weather which should last until Sunday.<\/p>\n Since it\u2019s Friday there\u2019s not better way to do that than with a cold drink in a beer garden. We\u2019ve got plenty to choose from, including canal-side pubs and city-centre sun traps.<\/p>\n Yet tucked away in Worsley in Salford<\/a> is a pub that\u2019s rather special, with a stunning beer garden. Worsley Old Hall is a self-described \u2018country house\u2019 pub, with gorgeous black and white timbering.<\/p>\n Only a stone\u2019s throw away from RHS Bridgewater, this grade-II listed building has a cosy interior with nooks and crannies where you can enjoy a drink (or several).<\/p>\n Yet when the sun\u2019s shining the huge garden at the back of the pub comes into its own. It\u2019s beautifully designed with generous seating options, and really does feel like a country house despite the fact it\u2019s minutes away from the M60<\/a>.<\/p>\n It\u2019s a lovely spot to sit and enjoy a drink after work as the sun sets with views across the golf course. Or head there on a weekend after exploring nearby Worsley village or RHS Bridgewater.<\/p>\n The pub has an excellent drinks selection, as well as a mouthwatering menu with light bites and hearty mains.<\/p>\n Deserts include Cheshire Farm ice cream and an impressive range of local cheeses.<\/p>\n The building itself dates from the 16th or early 17th century and was originally a timber-framed building, which has been rebuilt in brick. The house was remodelled in the 18th century.<\/p>\n The hall has significant importance to Greater Manchester as it was here that It was in the hall that Francis Egerton, the 3rd Duke of Bridgewater, James Brindley and John Gilbert planned the Bridgewater Canal and supervised its building.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/1744413730_839_consent-placeholder.svg.svg+xml\")
