10 min walk up Milehouse Rd will take you into Stoke village, several pubs within 3min walk of each other plus a social club, in case you're wondering i lived in Stoke for almost 30yrs?

Dont wear any colours as they wont let you in, its called the Brit.
You can walk to Stoke village in about 20mins from the station, if you take a slight de-tour there'll be a few on the way or get a bus outside the station that will take to Milehouse
