The owners of a pub have been left baffled after finding an unopened can of beer in the roof - dating back more than 30 years.

The tin of Joseph Holt bitter was discovered in the ceiling during a major refurbishment of the pub in Greater Manchester.

The beer is no longer available in cans, only on draught or in mini kegs, and has not been for more than three decades.

It is now being preserved as a piece of history in a display cabinet behind the bar at the Starkey Arms on Manchester Road, Heywood.

A mainstay of British life.

This community will focus on pubs and the pub trade, hopefully with a focus on more traditional boozers rather than corporate drinking spaces but we'll see where the tides carry us.
