There is a large carpark attached to the pub, and a double garage. Robinsons are looking for new licensees to push the wet offering here at the Railway. There is a fantastic newly put in kitchen in the pub that also needs to be utilised with a good food offering. The new licensees will want to involve themselves with the community of Handforth. This is a gem of a pub, looking for a new licensee.
