    If it's the Pratty flowers (aka the Prince of Wales) at crowedge it's now closed is now a housing estate. Had many a Friday lunchtime in there when I worked at Hepworth.
    Holmfirth is a good night had many a great night down there. Plus a decent scrap well I am a Penistonian.

    Pratty Flowers is a song we were always encouraged to sing in The Farmers Arms by the Holmfirth locals, mate.

    The tripadvisor reviews for Joe and Lous look fantastic.

    Agreed, burgers are fantastic and the little creatures ale is lovely. Also had it in No7 a few weeks ago on tap.

    Somebody mentioned a post covid meet up in September, worst places than holmfirth. Cheapish taxi back if you find you don't get on with your new virtual friends, even cheaper for me as I'm only 4 miles away :D
