Interestingly, so local legend says, Fitzpatrick’s temperance bar is haunted by the ghostly apparition of a grinning innkeeper!
A medium was actually employed to see what was going on and the verdict was that he was too happy where he was to move on! However, the jury is still out on whether he’s smiling happily or grimacing angrily at the teetotallers sipping non-sarsaparilla in his former pub!
Fitzpatrick's accredited Temperance Bar in Rawtenstall has been making soft drinks for the people of Rossendale and the Lancashire regions for 118 years.
