Recently (July 2024) re-opened after refurbishment, the former Sale Hotel is now simply the Sale, after flirting with other names including the Moorfield. The building is on the site of an old botanical garden set in an area known as the Moorfield, hence its previous name. It still has the old viewing tower for the gardens which is now part of the Manager's residence. There are large rooms on both sides of the bar, a pool table and dartboard to the left and a separate dining area to the right. Contrary to the sign next to the stairs there are toilets downstairs, a Gents, and ladies can use the accessible toilet. There is a terrace and large patio area at the back in front of the large car park. The pub was formerly owned by Punch, who had already ripped out most of its old, original features. In 2009 it was threatened with demolition but a local campaign was successful in keeping the exterior intact. It is now owned by Greene King and listed at Grade II (List Entry Number: 1393422). Although very much a food-led operation now, the Sale still welcomes drinkers. Coach parties are welcome.
