The pub was well-known as a haven for bikers and rockers until long standing landlord Ronnie Fitzpartick retired in 2014.

She said: “We have been busy booking up bands every weekend. We’re booking rock music because that is what the Dog and Partridge is known for.

“All the customers have said they would love it to be how it was, so that’s what we are aiming for.

“If the bikers want to come they can hold their meetings here, they can bring their bikes and park outside or in the yard.

“This is the D and P – it has to be the bikers bar!”

The Dog and Partridge is open from 4pm during the week and from 12pm on Saturdays and Sundays.
