This includes a change to the design of the individual pub pages. The pubs now have links to their Beer in the Evening pages and have google maps showing their locations. I will add a link to the blogs about these pubs at some point too.<br />
<br />
Two new pubs have been added:<br />
<br />
The Kirklees Pub in Wigan: <a href="http://www.towpathtreks.co.uk/LLC/pub_info_display.asp?ino=25">http://www.towpathtreks.co.uk/LLC/pub_info_display.asp?ino=25</a><br />
