The Junction Inn was built around 1854 on what was then an area of Ashton called Charlestown. The area was made up of traditional "back to back" terraced houses and dotted with shops and many public houses. A tunnel still exists today under the Junction that used to connect to another pub across the street.
The tunnel has a dip in the middle and it was probably used to roll barrels of ale from one pub to the other. The pub was bough by Robinson's off Schofield's Portland brewery in 1926.The back to back housing has long gone and the area has been redeveloped but we are still very much a community pub.
We love our sport here and we have nine big screens to watch all the action, we've kept a traditional tap room with darts and pool. Entertainment is our passion and we source some of the best bands and tribute acts in the business. We even have a motor bike club who raise considerable money for charities and organise some great events and rides out.

Lovely local pub. No food served here. Robinsons Unicorn bitter was well on form. Reasonably priced. Friendly bar staff.
Excellent Beer. Very Clean, recently been renovated. Lovely Staff. Reasonable Prices. Will definitely go again, if standards remain this high.

Only recently started going into this pub but absolutely love it. Great selection of beers and a wide range of gins (which keeps the missus happy 😊). The landlord and landlady (Michelle and Lee) are very approchable and have created a great atmosphere in the pub. Love the fact that they also hold regular events and entertainment.
Great atmosphere and a good pint enough said
