Qype: Walsh’s Ye Olde Pastie Shop in Bolton

Bolton

Either I am unlucky, or Ye Olde Pastie Shop has really been out of business for a very long time… in fact, in all time I’ve been going to Churchgate. The pastie shop was established, according to the plaque, in 1667, and sits right opposite the famous Olde Man and Scythe where the 7th Earl of Derby spent the night before execution.

Even if the shop is no longer in business, the building itself is a fine example of 17th c. urban architecture.
