The 125 stagecoach bus runs between Bolton and Preston regularly throughout the day from Bolton Bus Station along Chorley Old Road to Horwich. The buses run every 10-15 minutes during the day so there are no timings on this trip. Check the time of the buses when you are in each pub.
The trip is planned to start at Bunburys. Followed by visits to some or all of the suggested pubs below

Bunburys, 397, Chorley Old Road, Bolton, BL1 6AH

Here is an option to stop off at Bobs Smithy and The Jolly Crofters. Both of which are on Chorley Old Road

Of course, like all our trips we don’t stick rigidly to the plan. If a pub has some special beers, then the stay is longer.
