The Squirrel was situated on Bolton Road, being
used as an Indian restaurant prior to closure. |

This is really weird! I have just read on another forum that this place has
been burned out. The history is quite amazing.
The original Squirrel Hotel stood on what is now the car park. This was
knocked down and the present building was built (I think in the 1960s).
Three consecutive landlords died a sudden death, I can’t remember them all
now but I know one had a heart attack while driving (I think outside Horwich
works). I’m not superstitious, but this place really does seem to be jinxed.
I used to deliver post there in the 1950s |
