The Corner Pin at Stubbins, near the village of Ramsbottom, is steeped in black pudding history.

Since time immemorial the historic public house has paid tribute to the brave men and women who repelled raiding parties from Yorkshire… by competing to dislodge Yorkshire Puddings from the ceremonial plinth with finest quality Bury black puddings (Kindly now supplied by Chadwicks of Bury… The finest Black Puddings in the world)…

An event now enshrined as the WORLD BLACK PUDDING THROWING CHAMPIONSHIPS…
