Originally the Hope Cottage Inn, this beerhouse opened in the 1860s opposite Pendleton Church on Broad Street about half a dozen doors along from the Horse & Jockey.  By the 1890s it had been renamed the Tower Inn.  Shortly after, Walkers & Homfray bought the Tower and this tiny boozer closed, after having passed to Wilsons, in 1971 [1].
