deal is sure to be popular, so book your table quick!

the city and head into the countryside on one of these picturesque
walks around West Yorkshire. You can see God's Own Country at its
very best, as you weave your way past glistening reservoirs, through
leafy woodlands and along tumbling streams.

Night On Earth

Sunday
23rd February at 5pm
“The End of the World Quiz waits for no man,

Three…”

the final countdown. Landlady Kathy invites you to the last

most. But with time ticking, some unexpected guests turn up out

with plenty of drama. Let’s get quizzical, quizzical!
