Property details
The Wheatsheaf is located in Failsworth which is a town in Greater Manchester, 3.7 miles northeast of Manchester and 2.9 miles southwest of Oldham. The orbital M60 motorway skirts Failsworth’s eastern boundary creating accessible transport links across the North West along with a Metrolink tram service from Failsworth Metrolink station on the Oldham & Rochdale Line. Situated on the main road through Failsworth, the Wheatsheaf is surrounded by local shops and businesses along with a high density of houses.
On entering through the front door, you are welcomed into an open-plan lounge/bar with the bar servery located in the heart of the pub servicing all areas. This area has comfortable seating and can seat up to forty covers. To the left-hand side of the pub, there is a games area, complete with a pool table and darts oche. Surrounding the bar servery are several stools and space for vertical drinking, this is where a lot of the locals tend to gather. There is also a small catering kitchen situated on the right-hand side of the pub opposite the bar servery, ideal for a basic food menu.
Externally, to the front, there are several wooden picnic benches for external drinking in the warmer months. There is also a quaint, enclosed drinking area to the right-hand side of the pub with additional seating and benches and a smoking solution with both heat and light.
The private accommodation is located on the first floor and is in reasonably good order. This consists of four good-sized bedrooms (one room can be used as a dining room or a bedroom depending on individual requirements) lounge, kitchen, and bathroom.

Trading style
The Wheatsheaf is a community pub with a strong, loyal following. It does exceptionally well on weekends with live entertainment. There is the potential here to create an avid sports following with not only pool and darts teams, but showing live sporting events as well. There is a catering kitchen which could be utilised to produce a good, basic food offer – especially when sports are on.
The landlords are looking for applicants who have local knowledge and can demonstrate their drive and passion to develop this fantastic community pub. Good standards will also be key as well as having the skills to promote the business through marketing and social media. They will also have the skills to re-introduce food as this has been offered in the past however re-introducing this could provide additional income to the business.
